Rivea corymobosa, Ololiuqui seed
Rivea corymbosa AKA Ololiuqui is a member of the Convolvulaceae family.
Ololiuqui is closely related to the Morning Glories and is similar in use to Hawaiian Baby Woodrose.
Throughout
historical refereces we see "two cultures in a duel to the death" (the
Spanish and the American Indians) with the tenacity and wiles of the
Indians defending their cherished Ololiuqui. The Indians seem to have
won out. Today, in almost all of the villages of Oaxaca, one finds the
Rivea corymbosa seeds still serving the natives as an ever present help
in time of trouble. As with the sacred mushrooms the use of of
Ololiuqui, so signifigant in the life of pre-hispanic Mexico, hid in
the hinterlands until the present century.
