Valerianacea, from Valerius (a physician ?), or valere, to be in health, from supposed medicinal properties.
The smell of Valerian is unpleasant to most Europeans. The Hindoo women perfrime their hair, and richer natives of the East their baths, with the roots of V, celtica, obtained from Carinthia
..., where half-naked peasants grub it up on the borders of eternal snow. In the hands of iEgean merchants it becomes the costly ' nard ' of the East. Nardostachgs, V, spica, of the Himmalayha mountains is said to be the true 'spikenard.' The seeds of V, rubra have been anciently used in embalming: some, which were re- moved from the cerecloth of a coffin buried in the twelfth century at Wymondham abbey, and planted, were found to vegetate. Rats as well as cats are passionately fond of Valerian, and ratcatchers employ it to allure them to destruction.
