Teotlaqualli, meaning "divine food" and also known as teopatli ("divine medicine") among other names, is a hallucinogen that was used by the Aztecs in the pre-Columbian era. It was made from a combination of ololiuhqui (Ipomoea corymbosa; a morning glory), picietl (Nicotiana rustica; Aztec tobacco), and the ashes of poisonous animals such as spiders, scorpions, and snakes.
