Content:
The book aims to analyze the cultural mutations of man from his initial stages of hunter-gatherer, to the constitution of homo religiosus. For six thousand years, the region called ÑEquatorial Andean Americaì (now Ecuador) was occupied by agro-pottery societies which have manifested the sacredness of the mystery of plant life parallel to human fertility. Along with the cult of ancestors and natural phenomena the use of Ñsacred plantsì within shamanistic rites has been important, which has lasted and is perceptible in the resurgence of a cosmic religiosity.
Content:
El libro se propone analizar las mutaciones culturales del hombre a partir de sus fases iniciales de cazador-recolector, hacia la constitucíon del homo religiosus. A la par del culto a los antepasadosy a los fenomenos naturales, en la busqueda del conocimiento de lo numinoso ha sido importante el uso de "plantas sagradas" dentro de ritos chamanicos, lo que ha perdurado y es perceptible en el resurgimiento de una religiosidad cosmica.
