Ergot, a mind-altering fungus, frequently infests food grains eaten by humans. When ingested in large enough quantities, ergot can cause delusional thought, hallucinations, heightened superstition, and impaired critical-thinking skills. When tissue samples were taken from exhumed participants of the long ago Salem witch trials in the early days of the U.S., highly elevated levels of ergot were found. They went mad on ergot. Research has found that the ergot levels in the lands during Christ's times were astronomically high.
