Abstract: Beginnings of Chemistry Sciences in Transylvania.-Chemistry is perhaps the youngest of the natural sciences."Protochemistry" appeared as the "byproduct" of alchemy: the first technologically really important chemicals (the mineral acids) were discovered during alchemists' experiments done in the hope of achieving of elements' transmutation.Chemistry as a science began somé 400 years ago with the iatrochemistry of Theophrastus Bombastus von Hohenheim (Paracelsus, 1493-1541) and the printing of Georg Bauer's book (Agricola, 1494-1555), "De Re Metallica" (1556).The paper presents a short historical overview on the appearance and further development of chemical sciences in Transylvania, from thebeginning up to 1959 (year of creation of the "Babe?-Bolyai"University at Kolozsvár/Cluj by the forced unification of the two Transylvanian Universities, the "Bolyai" and the "Victor Babej"), as well as the influence of the scientific work done in Transylvania on the development of chemical sciences on the territory of the historical Hungary.A kémia a természettudomány viszonylag fiatal, mindössze 3-400 éves ága, bár tudatos emberi tevékenységként sokkal régebbi.Tudománnyá válását az aranycsinálás titkát közel kétezer éven át kutató alkimisták kísérletezései indították el.Az alkimisták a Kárpát-medencét mindig is számon tartották:
