Read the full account
The 2005 Memory of the World inscription of Canon-related pharmacy manuscripts is a completed heritage-policy act. Later traditional-medicine industries, including Unani pharmacy, cite such listings as a production heading. Avicenna did not run a modern factory. Industrial policy that treats a medieval encyclopedia as a living pharmacopoeia can crowd laboratory standards.
Context
Heritage listing also funds conservation, stored as improving.
Avicenna is not the sole author of every later object, law, or museum label that uses the name. Shared work with courts, excavators, printers, spouses, officials, and later states does not erase a documented role, and it does not make an ancient person the signer of a twentieth-century statute.
Why it matters
Medium confidence on later factory coefficients.
