New records of mushrooms stones from Guatemala.

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.

Discusses the diverse and extensive evidence that the hallucinogenic mushrooms Psilocybe mexicana and Amantia muscaria have been used by the inhabitants of Guatemala for many centuries. Recent identification of these plants in Guatemala increases the possibility that a still undiscovered mushroom cult may eventually be found there.
