Correction and clarification of an error in an article that I wrote (with Michael Winkelman) called 'Maria Sabina, wise lady of the mushrooms'.

摘要

In 1989, ethnomycologist John W. Allen read our article and noticed that we had mistakenly written that in 1936 the daughter of Richard Evans Schultes had observed a sacred mushroom ceremony in Oaxaca, Mexico. At the time we were unaware that Dr. Schultes did not marry and have children until the 1950s, after having spent nearly 14 years of research and study in the Amazonian jungles of Colombia.However, it was actually Irmgard Weitlaner, the daughter of Robert J. Weitlaner who in 1938 observed a mushroom ceremony in Oaxaca, along with Jean Bassett Johnson and others.
