Abstract
All
over the globe, man has used since time immemorial an array of plants,
fungi, and the like to aid him in his undertakings whenever he needed.
Ethnobotany has greatly gaind a respectable position among more
established scientific fields by scrutinizing vast material of these
useful plants thus far. Yet, most reports have dealt with the
magico-religious or medicinal use, whereas few has heretofore been told
about plants used to enable a better hunting success. The aim of this
short paper is to provide a preliminary overview of psychoactive
substances harnessed in a hunting context.
