Accepted 22-XI-2013. Abstract: Anadenanthera colubrina var. cebil is an important tree species for its cultural, economic, and medicinal uses in South America. In order to characterize A. colubrina populations, we collected fruits from four different sites (San Bernardo, El Cebilar, Metán and El Gallinato) within the species distribution area in Salta Province, Northwestern Argentina. For this, a total of 75 fruits and seeds per site were collected and described using morphological (fruits size and weight; seed weight and number per fruit) and genetic descriptors (ribo- somic DNA extraction and PCR; nucleotide alignment and phylogenetic analysis) with standard protocols. Our results showed that the San Bernardo population had the heaviest fruits and seeds (7.89±0.2g and 0.19±0.002, respectively), and the Cebilar population the lightest (6.25±0.18g and 0.15±0.002g, respectively). Fruits and seeds from Metán and El Gallinato showed similar and intermediate values. The proportion viable (39 to 55%) and aborted (43 to 57%) seeds was different, while the proportion of predated (1.7 to 4.2%) seeds was similar among populations. The genetic analysis showed variability of ITS sequences within the especies, and also when compared with the same Brazilian species. Both, morphologic and genetic descriptors showed a high level of similarity between San Bernardo and Metán, and between El Cebilar and El Gallinato populations. Further stud- ies are needed to assess levels of phenotypic and genetic variability within and between populations of different plant species, since this information is crucial for biodiversity and germplasm long-term conservation.

  • Bifurcated Snuff Tubes in the Pre-Columbian Caribbean
    Journal of Caribbean Archaeology Copyright 2020 ISBN 1524-4776 Conduits to the supernatural: Bifurcated snuff tubes in the pre-Columbian Caribbean Joanna Ostapkowicz School of Archaeology University of Oxford Oxford, OX1 2PG, UK [email protected] UK museum collections hold an important and largely unexplored corpus of Caribbean pre-Columbian cultural heritage, including seminal pieces that can offer new insights into the development of complex rituals in the region. This paper re-establishes the cultural context and significance of a previously undocumented carving related to cohoba drug rituals: an ornate, composite snuff tube carved of cannel coal, recovered from the Lesser Antillean island of St Vincent before 1870, and donated to Oxford's Pitt Rivers Museum in 1900. Both the material (which does not occur in the insular Caribbean) and the carving style suggest that the snuff tube was an import from Venezuela's Lower Orinoco region, where the Barrancoid style emerged in its classic form ca. ~100 BC - AD 500 (Los Barrancos complex). As such, it is the earliest example of drug paraphernalia often assumed to have been used only after ~AD 1000, and isolated to the chiefdom-level societies of the Greater Antilles. This paper contributes a brief review of the St Vincent snuff tube within the context of other stone and wood examples in public collections in efforts to explore their diagnostics, range and, ultimately, the ceremonies in which they were used. Las colecciones museísticas del Reino Unido conservan un importante y a su vez poco conocido corpus de materiales pertenecientes al patrimonio precolombino caribeño, entre los que se incluyen piezas destacadas que pueden ofrecer información sobre el desarrollo de rituales complejos en la región.

  • Richard Spruce: an Early Ethnobotanist and Explorer of the Northwest Amazon and Northern Andes
    J. Ethnobiol. 3(2):139-147 December 1983 RICHARD SPRUCE: AN EARLY ETHNOBOTANIST AND EXPLORER OF THE NORTHWEST AMAZON AND NORTHERN ANDES RICHARD EVANS SCHULTES Jeffrey Professor of Biology and Director, Botanical Museum of Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138 ABSTRACT.-Although Richard Spruce, a pioneer botanical explorer of the northwest Amazon and the northern Andes in the middle of the last century, made numerous impor­ tant ethnobotanical discoveries, he missed the opportunity of delving deeply into the ethno­ pharmacological lore of the area. Part of this deficiency was due not certainly to his scien­ tific curiosity but to his inability to associate closely with unacculturated natives, the incredible intensity of his floristic and taxonomic studies, and possibly to his illness. Yet his research set the stage for recent ethnobotanical investigations of this very species-rich region. INTRODUCTION The Indians of the northwest Amazon, especially those of the Brazilian and Colom­ bian region of the Rfo Vaupes, have a rich ethnopharmacological lore. This wealth of knowledge of the presumed medicinal properties of plants, however, is just coming to the fore-and most certainly not too soon with its disappearance in the face of advancing acculturation and the inroads of civilization. Richard Spruce (Fig. I), the British plant-explorer who opened up this region to science between 1851 and 1854, must be counted amongst the greatest naturalists ever to have engaged in collecting and studies anywhere in virgin tropical American territories. As a result of his meticulous observation and insatiable curiosity, a basis for our under­ standing of great areas of the Amazon Valley and of the northern Andes was early and most firmly laid.

Its propagation is mainly by seeds, but basic subsidies regarding the requirements for optimal germination conditions are still lacking. Aiming to contribute to the expansion of its cultivation, rational use and conservation, the objective of this study was to investigate the morphology and anatomy of fruits and seeds, as well as the responses to factors as thermal regimes and substrates in seed germination. The 1000-seed weight and seeds per fruit were determined. To characterize the seed tissues, histochemical test with Sudan III and Lugol was used. The temperatures analyzed in the germination test were 15-25 °C; 25 °C; 20-30 °C and 30 °C.

ABSTRACT Anadenanthera (Fabaceae) is endemic to the Neotropics and consists of two tree species: A. colubrina (Vell.) Brenan and A. peregrina (L.) Speg. This study examined the mating system and contemporary gene flow of A. colubrina (Acol) and A. peregrina (Aper) in a highly fragmented area of the Atlantic Forest to provide valuable information that informs conservation strategies. Reproductive adults from forest remnants [nA. colubrina = 30 (2.7 ha), nA. peregrina = 55 (4.0 ha)] and progeny-arrays (nA. colubrina = 322, nA. peregrina = 300) were genotyped for seven nuclear microsatellite markers. Mating system analyses revealed that A. colubrina is a mixed mating species (tm = 0.619) while A. peregrina is a predominantly outcrossing species (tm = 0.905). For both Anadenanthera species, high indices of biparental inbreeding were observed (Acol = 0.159, Aper = 0.216), resulting in low effective pollination neighborhood sizes.

  • 1. Antiquity of the Use of New World Hallucinogens Richard Evans
    The Heffter Review of Psychedelic Research, Volume 1, 1998 1. Antiquity of the Use of New World Hallucinogens Richard Evans Schultes, Ph.D., F.M.L.S “In the exudates and decoctions from trees and herbs, man has found principles that have permitted him to experience a kinship with the whole of creation.” -- William Emboden (1979) Abstract: A review of psychoactive plants known from archaeological contexts and artistic representations shows that their use has spanned centuries, continuing in places in Mexico and South America to the present day. The discovery of the unusual properties of these plants took place as part of the exploration of the physical milieu of the Western Hemisphere. That these plants must in some cases be made into infusions in order to be consumed reveals ancient enterprise in manipulating aspects of the environment. The surprising results obtained from treating psychoactive plants allowed their users to communicate more directly with the unseen world which they believed to exist. It was the great German toxicologist Louis Lewin (1931) who wrote that "from the beginning of our knowledge of man, we find him consuming substances of no nutritive value, but taken for the sole purpose of producing for a certain time a feeling of contentment, ease and comfort." There is ample material proof that narcotics and other psychoactive plants, such as hallucinogens, were employed in many cultures in both hemispheres thousands of years ago. The material proof exists in some archaeological specimens of the plants in contexts indicating magico-religious use and in art forms such as paintings, rock carvings, golden amulets, ceramic artifacts, stone figurines, and monuments.

  • La Importancia De Las Plantas Psicotrópicas Para La Economía De Intercambio Y Relaciones De Interacción En El Altiplano Sur Andino
    Complutum, 11, 2000: 275-284 LA IMPORTANCIA DE LAS PLANTAS PSICOTRÓPICAS PARA LA ECONOMÍA DE INTERCAMBIO Y RELACIONES DE INTERACCIÓN EN EL ALTIPLANO SUR ANDINO Dante Angelo Zelada*, José Mariano Capriles Flores** RESUMEN.- El presente estudio pretende analizar las relaciones de interacción e intercambio desarrolladas en la región sur del altiplano andino durante la cultura Chicha, a partir del tráfico de plantas psicoactivas, en espe- cial Anadenanthera colubrina y Nicotiana tabacum. Enfocamos principalmente el actual norte de Chile, noroeste de la Argentina y la parte sur de Bolivia. El intercambio de productos entre los diversos grupos asentados en ca- da una de ellas a partir de vínculos y redes de interacción, permitió el acceso a productos y bienes de consumo, a los que no se tenían acceso. Se infieren posibles rutas de transito, basadas en la distribución de dos especies de plantas psicotrópicas y de los hallazgos arqueológicos de parafernalia relacionada con el consumo de éstas. The role of psychotropic plants in the south Andean highland exchange relations. Abstract.- The aim of this paper is to analyse the interaction and interchange relationships that took place in the southern Andean highland in the Chicha period, through the trade of psychoactive plants, such as Anadenan- thera colubrina and Nicotiana tabacum. The areas covered by this study are northern Chili, northwest Argentina and southern Bolivia. The interchange links between the groups in those areas allowed them to make use of a number of new goods, otherwise inaccessible. The possible trade ways are also inferred, after the analysis of the psychotropic plants distribution and of the archaeological paraphernalia connected to their consumption.
