		Traditional knowledge of plants was augmented through trade relations and scholarly exchange with other countries, and in the early Middle Ages it had reached a level of development that was in no ways inferior to botany in Europe.
		It may be assumed, although it cannot be proven, that the Materia medica of Dioscurides was known in Gonde@æa@pu@r before these translations and may even have been translated into Middle Persian.
		The great value of this book lies in the fact that it expounds in alphabetical order on simple drugs, mainly medicinal herbs, and cites the names by which they were commonly known in Persia.

		But on comparing the miniatures of the Byzantine schoolhouse approximately with their classical predecessors, has a feel of having passagewayed from the operative air into the cloister.

		But when we turn away from the special case of scientific illustration we must expect more flexibility in transmission.
