The 'Chinese' Theory: For and Against

[Jorge_Stolfi]

I also should have tried to identify the drawings that appear on that image.

Actually it was easier than expected, thanks to Google AI.  Each label should be read right-to-left, and it is the name of a province (州 zhou) followed by the name of the SBJ entry (烏頭 = "crow's head" = "aconite's main root").  Like ←頭烏州成← = →成州烏頭→ = "aconite main root from Jinzhou".

So they seem to be all varieties or subspecies of Aconitum carmichaelii.

All the best, --stolfi;
