Reference information: Harina de Mambe compuesta de hoja de ayo y cal de Yarumo http://kambo.me/smf/index.php?topic=264.0 http://encolombia.com/medicina/revistas-medicas/academedicin... En Colombia se han utilizado desde hace miles de años, por su capacidad de inducir estados modificados de conciencia, plantas como el tabaco, el hayo o ayo o exs (coca), el yoco, el yopo, el yajé, la virola y el borrachero. Ellas han sido usadas de diversas formas y preparaciones, solas o en combinación. ***El hayo o ayo o exs ***(coca en quechua, que a su vez viene del término aimará kkoka) (Erythroxylum coca y E. novogranatense var. trixillense) se mastica sólo o mezclado con cales de las piedras o de macerado de conchas, y a veces con ambil, chimú o yua para potenciar su efecto estimulante en las largas jornadas diurnas de trabajo y nocturnas de conversaciones o de pensamiento. Es una planta que se usa como ofrenda en los lugares sagrados y como expresión de respeto en los encuentros ceremoniales y rutinarios. - ***Conchas de mar. El polvo obtenido de estas conchas después de ser quemadas en un fuego alimentado preferiblemente por madera de guadua y triturado después, se deposita en el interior de los poporos. Este polvo luego se mezcla en la boca con las hojas del hayo o exs o coca, conformando el mambe*****, Poporo de calabazo facilitado por un chaman o mamo arhuaco de la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta. Tiene un simbolismo femenino. *****Hoja de guarumo o yarumo ( Cecropia sciadophylla) ****que al quemarse produce unas cenizas alcalinas que los indígenas le añaden a las hojas de coca ya tostadas y pulverizadas. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cecropia The genus is native to the American tropics, where it is one of the most recognizable components of the rainforest. The genus is named after Cecrops I, the mythical first king of Athens. Common local names include yarumo or yagrumo, or more specifically yagrumo hembra ("female yagrumo") to distinguish them from the similar-looking but unrelated Schefflera (which are called yagrumo macho, "male yagrumo"). In English, these trees are occasionally called pumpwoods (though this may also refer to C. schreberiana specifically) or simply Cecropias. Spanish-speaking countries in Central American, Mexico, the Caribbean, Colombia and Ecuador commonly use the vernacular name, “guarumo”. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2015-09-15 02:26:54 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Introduction & Use of Coca - Erythroxylum Coca - Drugs Forum https://drugs-forum.com/forum/showwiki.php?title...Coca...Co...

THE COCA CULT IN COLOMBIA Today, only a few tribes, which live in the high mountains or in the Amazon jungles of Colombia, still chew coca (fig. l). The Amazon tribes adopted coca only after the Spanish conquest. They dry and pulverize the leaves, and then mix them with the ashes of cecropia leaves. These ashes help to extract the alkaloids from the coca. The mixture is chewed and then swallowed. The mountain people, in contrast, use coca in a traditional, quite ritual manner. They believe that this "divine" plant was given to them by their gods to make them more thoughtful and vigorous. To enhance the release of alkaloids from the leaves, they use quicklime prepared from limestone or seashells. This alkaline substance is added to the soft parts of the leaves. Both are chewed or simply kept in one of the cheeks. Only the juices are swallowed, the leaves are spit out. Typical requisites of the coca cult are the ceramic bowl, in which the leaves are dried or toasted, the flask-like gourd (span, poporo). in which the quicklime is kept, the lime-spatula, and the pouch, in which the leaves and gourd are carried. Some of these utensils may still be found among people who cling to the old habit: the Arhuacos, Tunebos, Fijaos, Faeces, and Guambianos (1).
