ii. History of Ethnobotanicals
20-70 pages, [Evening Glory, Elpo, Bancopuma, SnozzleBerry, Entropymancer]
The work on a thorough monograph concerning the history of ethnobotanical use has been started, see this thread. The idea is to prove beyond any doubt that in every human culture, in every part of the world, medicinal and visionary plants has had a rather large impact. A summary of this book will be available in the Nexus eBook.
Entropymancer will write the monograph with the help of the community. My thought is to divide it into two sections. The first will treat ancient use that we have archaeological of very old written records of; the second will treat the written records of the rediscovery of these ancient traditions by western cultures. A brief summary of relevant data on each plant that is mentioned will be included as an appendix.
