📚 Your #GCSEHistory word of the day is... APOTHECARY! 🩺
Think of them as the medieval and early modern equivalent of a pharmacist. An apothecary was a person who prepared and sold medicines, often for a much cheaper price than a university-trained physician. They sold everything from herbal remedies to charms, making them the most accessible form of healthcare for the average person!
They are super important for your #Medicine or #Health unit because they show how most people got their medical care. While physicians were expensive and only diagnosed illness, it was the apothecary who provided the actual treatments, no matter how unscientific they seem now!
