so i just had a HUGE epiphany. my dad would go to south america and hang out with the yanomami, and he would tell me about them, and i have two necklaces of his that they gave him. one has what i think he told me was a sloth toenail, and the other is a bunch of flat brown seeds. so, i was looking up information about yopo and learned the yanomami use it, which i had never known (so much makes sense now!!)... and then it was like "wait a minute... oh my god!" this necklace, do you think it's made of yopo seeds?? the covering on some of them has come off, and the seed underneith is light tan, split down the middle. they're a little bigger than my thumbnail, oval shaped, and thin... i would never destroy the necklace for any reason, and i'm sad that the covering has come off some of the seeds... but i'm curious to know .
