#History of Dwarf Elder

Dwarf elder, whose Latin name is "Sambucus ebulus" has been known since ancient times as one of the most medicinal herbs. To this day, it is used to treat numerous ailments. It can be found in various parts of the world but originates from Southern and Central Europe and Southwest Asia. It is also found in parts of North America.

Dwarf elder has an interesting origin of its name. In fact, the name "Sambucus" appears in the written works of Hippocrates, and later - Dioscorides. It is believed that the name comes from Greek and is related to a term naming an ancient musical instrument (or group of instruments). It is very likely that this musical instrument was made from elder wood, which is known for its "decent" strength.

In this line of thought, besides being used to heal the body, it also "healed" the soul.

Thus in different languages it means the same in translation but sounds different - danewort, dwarf-elder (English); buzina travyanistaya (Russian); zwerg-holunder (German); yebie, petit saureau (French).

In Bulgaria it also has several names - trevist baz, bazovlyak, bazyunyak, nisko baze.
