| | Brugmansia Information |
 | | Brugmansia species are known by a number of names, including angel's trumpet (a reference to the shape of the flowers) yerba de huaca, campanilla, maicoa, tonga, toa, buyes, floripondio, chamico, huanco and huacacachu and borrachero. |
 | | Among the pre-Conquest Chibcas of Colombia a concoction of Brugmansia, tobacco and maize beer was given to slaves and wives of dead kings in order to put them in a deep narcotic state so that they could be buried alive with their masters and husbands. |
 | | In Sibundoy, as a rule, the use of Brugmansia for its psychoactive effects is restricted to shamans who drink it either in water or alcohol and see terrifying visions of jaguars (the most important shamanic animal in large parts of South America) and snakes. |
