Etymology of Cordia:
For Euricius Cordus (1486–1535), German humanist, prolific poet, botanist, professor of medicine at the gymnasium in Bremen, author of Botanologicon, and for his son Valerius Cordus (1515–1544), botanist, pharmacist, physician, and botanical collector, who found many new and rare species, mainly in central and southern Germany and Italy. The son, Valerius, received a bachelor’s degree of medicine at the University of Marburg. He was one of the fathers of pharmacognostics (a subfield of pharmacology which studies natural drugs, including the study of their biological and chemical components, botanical sources, and other characteristics), and died in Rome.
