Illustrates and describes 7 mushroom stones from the Guatemalan Highlands and 
Chiapas Mexico. The line drawings (fig 18, 19) illustrate 5 Type B and C mushroom 
stones, reproduced by Borhegyi’s chart as nos 31, 15, 32, 25 respectively. Plate 
XLIII illustrates the Type C effigy mushroom stone first published by Sapper and 
now in the possession of the Rietberg Museum in Ziirich. Plate XLIV illustrates a 
Type B effigy mushroom stone with circularly grooved cap from the Hans Namuth 
private collection in New York, representing a young woman (a virgin?) kneeling 
before a metate. (Reproduced also as fig 3 in Borhegyi’s chart.) The drawings and 
plates in this book are also illustrated as figs 22, 23 and plates XI, XII in Heim and 
Wasson, Entry 2. The Wassons describe in detail (pp 275-286) their research in Mexico 
and Guatemala, relative to the modern use of hallucinogenic mushroom by Indian 
groups in Mexico, and convincingly associate the use of mushroom stones with 
similar rites in Pre-Columbian Mesoamerica.
