Turpentine Broom

Shamans of the North American Kawaiisu Indians

were said to drink a tea from this plant so that they

could become "crazy like coyotes:' i.e., transform

themselves into these animals (Moerman 1986,

481 *). The plant contains numerous coumarins

that may have psychoactive effects. It is also possible

that it contains N,N-DMT (Ott 1993,420*).
