probably artemisia annua, famous as sweet annie. your local health food class should have it. if not, try 101 herbs.

That depends on what culture you want aggregation for. What some specific Native dweller culture used would depend on what plants of ingest they had ontogeny in their region. For example: ALGONQUIN - Balsam Fir resin, Yellow Bluebead Lily leaf, Yellow Pond Lily rhizome, Balsam Poplar buds, Cat-tail root APACHE - Prickly Pear cactus stem HOPI - Touristplant pods, Scarlet Four O'clock CHEROKEE - Biennial Wormwood, Wild Ginger leaves, Mockernut Hickory bark BLACKFOOT - Fringed Sagewort leaves, river Milkvetch roots, Prairiesmoke roots If you crapper specify which Native dweller cultures you want aggregation for, I could give you answers. I hit some superior resources in my library that I crapper meaning for you. fixer - Artemisia annua is autochthonous to South Eastern Galilean and Western Asia, so it unlikely had much ingest by Native Americans EDIT - This is the aggregation I hit found on the Cheyenne so far. I hit included references in case you need this aggregation for a project that requires you to allow a bibliography Koeleria macrantha - Prairie Junegrass Plant used for cuts. Hart, Jeffrey A. 1981 The Ethnobotany of the Northern Cheyenne Indians of Montana. Journal of Ethnopharmacology 4:1-55 (p. 10) Rumex crispus - Curly Dock Wet poultice of pounded, preserved stem applied to wounds Grinnell, George Bird 1972 The Cheyenne Indians - Their History and Ways of Life Vol.2. Lincoln. University of Nebraska Press (p. 172) Salix amygdaloides - Peachleaf Willow Poultice of bark applied to bleeding cuts. Hart, Jeffrey A. 1981 The Ethnobotany of the Northern Cheyenne Indians of Montana. Journal of Ethnopharmacology 4:1-55 (p. 37) Salix sp. - Unspecified Willow species Bark peeled and used for cuts. Hart, Jeff 1992 Montana Native Plants and Early Peoples. Helena. Montana Historical Society Press (p. 67) I also hit aggregation for sores, boils etc, if this would be of use?
