Resumen

The therapeutic exploration of nature dates to the dawn of human civilization. Throughout history, medicinal plants have played a significant role in the practice of phytotherapy and in the search for new medicines (MOREIRA & OLIVEIRA, 2017). However, for plants to be used for therapeutic purposes, it is essential that they meet criteria of efficacy, safety and therapeutic actions. In addition, it is essential to provide information about the chemical composition, since misconceptions between distinct species, but known by the same popular name, are common. This study aims to present elements of traditional knowledge  in the use of the plant Gossypium Herbaceum, known as purple cotton, used as a natural treatment in the community of Bacuriteua, in the municipality of Bragança do Pará.
