The Slavs improved the simple technique of beekeeping and knowledge about bees after their immigration, in contact with the indigenous population and the Byzantine world. In medieval Serbia, this economic activity was on a constant rise, and the realized surplus products appeared in trade. As natural products, beekeeping products have appeared as a means of healing even before the new era. Honey has a wide range of effects (anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antiviral, probiotic and others) and it is found in the basis of many drugs, syrups and balms. By combining wax and other medicinal preparations, emplasts and ointments were formed and used in medicine and cosmetics. The use of honey and wax in medical practice, pharmacology and pharmacotherapy among Serbs in the Middle Ages were directly evidenced by the Hilandar Medical Codex and the Medical Texts from the Hodoch Code. They showed that Serbian medieval medicine has been based on ancient foundations and that it has been developed under the strong influence of Western medicine, whose centers have been located in Salerno and Montpellier. The secular and religious people of the Serbian Middle Ages were equally interested in the use of honey in the nutrition. Its consumption was allowed during long fasting days, so this food was gladly seen on the monk's table. It has been used as a sweetener, tea supplement, dessert and for food canning. Honey is used to make mead, a favorite Slovenian alcoholic beverage. Honey is a symbol of wealth and harmony in Medieval Serbian literature. The monastery manors of Medieval Serbia paid special attention to beekeeping because of the wax. The bee is the embodiment of innocence, morality and justice. Candles, a source of light, were made from beeswax. Without them, liturgical and worship life is inconceivable. They follow Christians from birth, ie. baptisms, through weddings to death. In short, they are indispensable in religious festivals, and they were also used for practical reasons (lighting). Special people in our monasteries took care of the candles. According to the Karyes Typicon and Hilandar Monastera Typicon, the memory of the founder was solemnly celebrated "with chanting and candles". In the dispositions of medieval charters, we come across the term candles, which means donations in the form of income from squares, oil mills, oil mills, wax, vineyards, villages and hamlets for the purchase of wax and candles.

Pčelarstvo predstavlja važnu proizvodnu delatnost srednjeg veka. Njegov razvoj na prostoru srednjovekovne Srbije pratimo od XII veka. Zahvaljujući brzom usponu, relativno rano se ostvaruju viškovi proizvoda koji se javljaju u trgovačkom prometu. U fokusu našeg rada nalazi se upotreba meda i voska u srednjovekovnoj medicini, ishrani i religiji na tlu srpskih zemalja. Analizira se upotreba meda i voska u lekarskoj praksi, farmakologiji i farmakoterapiji kod Srba u srednjem veku na osnovu dostupnih spisa: Hilandarski medicinski kodeks i Medicinski spisi Hodoškog zbornika. Iz njih se vidi da se med nalazio u osnovi brojnih lekova, sirupa i melema, dok su kombinovanjem voska i drugih lekovitih preparata nastajali emplastri i masti, primenjivani u medicini i kozmetici. Svetovna i duhovna lica su podjednako bila zainteresovana za upotrebu meda u ishrani. Korišćen je kao zaslađivač, prilikom spravljanja kuvanih jela, poslastica i konzerviranja namirnica. Od meda je pravljena medovina, alkoholno piće. Sveće od voska su neizostavne u svetkovinama verskog i ritualnog karaktera. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
