description Resumen: Este escrito examina la relación única entre los chamanes y las plantas psicodélicas especiales valoradas en sus culturas. El uso del Peyote (Lophophora williamsii) entre la cultura indígena Huichol de México, y la coca (Erythroxyum coca var. coca) en las culturas indígenas de San Pedro de Atacama en el norte de Chile y los Aymaras de la región de La Paz en Bolivia son el centro de esta discusión. Este texto trata los papeles centrales que los chamanes y estas plantas juegan en las creencias y prácticas tradicionales, al igual que los aspectos terapéuticos de estas plantas y las maneras en que han llegado a simbolizar la identidad indígena en el tiempo de la globalización.

The use of Peyote (Lophophora williamsii) in Huichol Indian culture of Mexico, and coca (Erythroxyum coca var. coca) in the indigenous cultures of San Pedro de Atacama in northern Chile and the Aymaras of the La Paz region of Bolivia are the focus of this discussion. This paper discusses the central roles the shamans and these plants play in traditional beliefs and practices as well as therapeutic aspects of these plants and the ways that they have come to symbolize Indian identity in a time of globalization.Universidad de Caldas2006-01-01T00:00:00Z2025-10-08T21:49:31Z2006-01-01T00:00:00Z2025-10-08T21:49:31Z2005-01-01Artículo de revistahttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_6501Textinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleJournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionhttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1application/pdf0122-8455https://repositorio.ucaldas.edu.co/handle/ucaldas/250912590-7840https://revistasojs.ucaldas.edu.co/index.php/culturaydroga/article/view/5989https://revistasojs.ucaldas.edu.co/index.php/culturaydroga/article/view/5989eng1721314511Cultura y DrogaAllen, Catherine.
