Terence McKenna postulated that psychedelic mushrooms played a crucial role in shaping human consciousness. According to McKenna, approximately 100,000 years ago, these mushrooms in the human diet marked a transformative phase from Homo erectus to Homo sapiens.

The reasoning behind this theory lies in the cohabitation of humans and cattle: the animals' dung served as a substrate for the growth of psychedelic mushrooms. Ingesting these mushrooms, McKenna suggests, bestowed an evolutionary advantage upon our hunter-gatherer forebears. They were an "evolutionary catalyst, promoting the development of language, art, religion, science, and the entirety of human culture.
