| Résumé : |
"The Doum palm, Hyphaene thebaica (L.) Mart., has long been used for local medicinal applications, and phytochemical analyses have provided supporting evidence of therapeutic effectiveness. During the First World War, a novel medicinal use was employed for the powdered fruits of this palm, forming an extension of biocultural knowledge within former French colonies in west Africa, from where it was derived."
