Resumen

The objective of the work is to estimate the theoretical-naturalistic aspects of current Argentine popular medicine comparing the degree of similarity between the type of allocation of remedies according to the hot-cold syndrome registered at present with that reported in missionary medical ethnobotany of the XVIIIth century following the humoral theory, for each of the common disorders from both sources. As sources, the "Materia Medica Misionera" attributed to Pedro de Montenegro from 1710, and the therapeutic indications associated with the syndrome registered by Scarpa at the beginings of XXI century for the Argentine Northwest Chaco Creoles, are used. The methodology consists in characterizing each one of the disorders whose therapeutics proved to respond to the "hot-cold" syndrome for both current and historical data. To do this, a quantitative method is used consisting of considering as "hot" or "cold" therapeutics those disorders or properties of the remedies for which remedies of that sign were prescribed -at least- in 75% of the total indications indicated for each of them in each source. Of a total of 48 common disorders -or properties of the remedies- analyzed, it is registered for 41 of them (85.4%) that there is a total coincidence between the hot-cold therapies used, being that the remedies are considered "hot" in 30 occasions, "cold" in 11 and are mixed (hot and cold) in 7 opportunities. These results show that the role of theoretical component in the plant pharmacopoeia of Argentine folk medicine is truly conspicuous, they allow extrapolating the classification criteria of plant remedies and disorders according to the hot-cold syndrome, as well as providing elements to support and put tests the hypothesis of the persistence of the dry-humid syndrome in argentinian folk medicine.
