Medicine in colonial Moquegua, Peru

Locumbilla, a rural colonial bodega or wine estate (heredad) in Moquegua, southern Peru, was briefly a hospital for ailing native Andean vineyard workers before its owner endowed a hospital, built by the Bethlehemite hospitaller order. Botanical remains recovered in excavations at the bodega included three items of indigenous healing, Datura, molle berries and soapberry, and an introduced item: castor beans. Their presence suggests that the workers may have availed themselves of traditional healers, and that the heredad might have cultivated castor bean, in addition to growing grapes for wine and brandy
