Zagori is a group of villages in and around the National Park of Vikos-Aoos, in Epirus, north-west Greece. It was renowned in previous centuries as a major centre of folk medicine, and its practitioners, called 'vikoyiatri' or 'komboyiannites', were famous beyond the borders of Greece. Given the rich biological and cultural heritage of Zagori, we have tried to evaluate the present status concerning the medicinal flora of the area and its uses in the everyday life of the Zagori inhabitants. About 100 plants and their uses for therapeutic and other purposes are reported. Information included comes from both literature sources and interviewed informants. Traditional healing has not been altogether wiped out of Zagori. However, it no longer reflects the famous past and rich medicinal flora of the area.
扎戈里是位于希腊西北部伊庇鲁斯维科斯-阿奥奥斯国家公园及其周边的一群村庄。在前几个世纪，它作为民间医学的一个主要中心而闻名，其从业者被称为“vikoyiatri”或“komboyiannites”，闻名于希腊境外。鉴于扎戈里丰富的生物和文化遗产，我们试图评估该地区药用植物群的现状及其在扎戈里居民日常生活中的用途。报告了约100种植物及其治疗和其他用途。所包含的信息来自文献资料和受访 informant。传统疗法在扎戈里并未完全消失。然而，它已不再反映该地区昔日的辉煌和丰富的药用植物群。
