Abstract
The search for a genuine thought in ancient times makes medical archeology part of our contemporary knowledge, not to say a patrimony to be harbored. A Roman encyclopedia is a compilation of the prevailing knowledge of scientific and medical matters at the time. In this paper an original Roman prescription for a specific cardiac complaint is analyzed for its activity and efficaciousness. Further investigation of the effect of Selenium administration is warranted.
