New Records of Mushroom Stones from Guatemala

Pages 983-993 | Accepted 05 Apr 1971, Published online: 12 Sep 2018
 

SUMMARY

A number of mushroom stones are described from Guatemala for the first time. The interpretation is supported that these sculptures were probably associated in Mayan culture with religious ceremonies wherein hallucinogenic fungi played a major role. It is probable that at least some of these stones may have been linked to a fertility cult.
