Özet
Usage of plants for medicinal purposes is as old as the history of humanity. In the present
study, we evaluated the results of a survey conducted with herbalists and people experienced in
herbal mixtures who are located in the city center of Mardin, with the purpose of identifying
the medicinal plants growing in the flora of Mardin and neighborhood, and as well as their
therapeutic uses. In this study, both the local and Latin names of the examined plants, their
indented use, the parts of the plant that is used, and preparation methods were specified.
Totally 24 plant types were recorded, and some of these plants were used to treat more than
one disease. Accordingly, the studied plants were used to treat a total of 34 diseases, with 29
internal and 5 external use. Most common therapeutic use of the plants included regulation of
blood sugar level, cardiovascular system, cholesterol and circulation, respiration, digestion,
gastrointestinal disorders, urinary tract disorders, analgesic, burns, and skin diseases. It was
determined that most plants were used alone, while some were mixed as mixtures.
