Personally I am inclined to believe that psychedelic experiences have played similar and significant role in almost all sophisticated civilizations - but I am not the author of this article... Bill Hicks in fact talks about the link between the psychedelic experience and cultural evolution in his typically amusing way over on BWtv - http://www.brainwavingtv.com/2009/bill-hicks-%E2%80%93-the-great-comedian-discusses-prohibition/ I agree, Geobeki Teppe sounds fascination – to think that it is 7500years older than the Pyramids of Giza is quite extraordinary.

The interesting connection to Chavin is very similar shape shifting human/animal forms carved into the rocks. Of course this is at a time before agriculture, at a time when nomadic peoples were thought too primitive for the type of organization required for such beautiful engravings and sophisticated architecture. I am interested in what the author of this article thinks about a connection here in some kind of elegant 'shaman-esque' experience that achieves reliably reproducable insight on the very grandest of orders without the inevitable drawbacks of rigid, lifeless doctrine.
