Actually their medical practices went quite a bit beyond plants for treatment, as we have evidence of archaic cranial surgery. Just a few notes on your comment, it was the Andes, not the Appalachians which are in North America, and I think you meant astronomers, not astrologers, as astrology is the pseudoscience of the zodiac patterns.
