===Religion=== The Mohave creator is ''Matevilya,'' who gave the people their names and their commandments. His son is ''[[Mastamho]],'' who gave them the River and taught them how to plant. Historically this was an agrarian culture; they planted in the fertile floodplain of the untamed river, following the age-old customs of the Aha cave. They have traditionally used the indigenous plant [[Datura]] as a deliriant [[hallucinogen]] in a religious sacrament. A Mohave who is coming of age must consume the plant in a rite of passage, in order to enter a new [[state of consciousness]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.angelfire.com/indie/anna_jones1/datura.html|title=Sacred Datura|website=[[Angelfire]]|access-date=April 27, 2020}}</ref>{{Better source needed|date=June 2023}}
