Oh, wow. The colours are so clean and crisp it looks like vector art. I had a hard time believing this is gouache (a medium I notoriously suck at, so that could have biased my point). What is the size of the thing? Largish, I surmise, since the details are very fine and - er - detailed. Pretty and minimalistic. Nice work.

this is well done. ive heard of using the cane toad or licking it. but i dont think it is indigenous to north america. i saw some in hawaii over the summer they were the biggest toads i ever saw, but i fought off the urge to lick them. they do have the poison dart frogs in central america.but i think they only used them for hunting. as for trade routes, they have found cocaine and tobacco in egyptian mummies. and i think the egyptians had the 2012 day too. but if they were trading goods ideas would come along also..

I strongly believe there must have been SOME trade between the peoples of north america and lower mexico....look at the art and mounds of the Hopewell culture I think they must have crossed the gulf of mexico and visited the ancient city-sites of the olmecs.
I agree poision dart frogs were probably only for hunting....I'm sure one stupid guy probably tried eating one but nobody did after

The calendar system is very interesting...it is this system that predicts 2012 as an important year:

As for the drink....it is commonly thought that the mayans used the venom of bufo alvarius {containing 5-meo-dmt} in some way to produce psychedelic vision states, vision states the some think lead to the creation of the calendar.
Problem is that the bufo alvarius is a toad common only to North America....so either they got the specific toad from a complex trade route or it was another kind of toad.
Most toads contain a different hallucinogenic compuond called Bufotenin{related to psilocin} which is also found in high content in bufo alvarius{also found in the urine of schizofrenic people funny enough}
There are some records of mayan/aztecs using toads{unspecified type} in a fermented drink with added toad venom.
But dont lick or drink toads! seriously all you'll get is sick...possibly deathly poisened. The Mayan culture is extremely interesting....extreme in the way that they would commonly bleed themselves from their tongues and genitals to produce vision states. We have easier ways than that thankfully nowadays

Good lord lol... i like my genitals un cut fucking thank you kindly.
Makes you appreciate the little tab of lsd so muh more hehe.
I'd love to learn more from you. go on!
I have heard that 5-meo- dmt has a very hard body load...
From my experimentation with dmt... i found it very harsh (smoking) and i was somewhat frightened before the sets so i didnt really get the full full effect of this extremely powerful drug. I had extracted a few grams of this stuff, prolly 90+ purity at least... and i was smoking it like weed at one point. Toke before night, toke when i wake up... ya know.. toke.. haha One time i was sitting in my room and i hit the bulb a few times ( i was vaporizing it in a light bulb... one of the reasons why i dont touch this stuff... it made me feel like a crack head) and I heard this crackling sound... i thought my brain just crackled but it was me putting the lightbulb on a wet towel... scared the living shit out of me....
I have had a very frightening experience on a combination of mushrooms/lsd ( ofcourse weed and ganja food were involved too but thats minor ) So after that experience I have been cautious about doing heavy doses of anykind of psychedelic as I experienced death head first and it was truely frightening but I'd never give that experience up for the world. I try to remember most of it but it is tough. Liquid lsd and mushrooms are a very powerful combo... I think all kids should try this at home.
I take no responciblity for your actions lol.
