[edit] Origin of theriac

Theriac was a formulation of the ancient Greeks. It did not originate with the Middle English term, Venice treacle, a later version. I believe Moyse Charas was the first European to widely publish the formula for theriac. Therefore, I am against the merging of these articles. –Mattisse (Talk) 23:11, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
