Abstract
Migraine is a common neurological disease, a type of headache. Currently, the etiology and pathogenesis of the disease are known, a detailed classification of migraine pain has been developed, and pathogenetic methods of treatment have been created. But it was not always so. The accumulation of knowledge about migraine and its separation from other headaches has been quite slow over the centuries. In this article we will try to identify this hidden and unobvious process, based on the texts of ancient authors or their translations. At the same time, we will study the etymology of the word “migraine”, tracing its transformation to the 16th century.
