2700 Year Old Stash Found in Gobi Desert
 

Nearly two pounds of still-green plant material found in a 2,700-year-old grave in the Gobi Desert has just been identified as the world's oldest marijuana stash, according to a paper in the latest issue of the Journal of Experimental Botany.

A barrage of tests proves the marijuana possessed potent psychoactive properties and casts doubt on the theory that the ancients only grew the plant for hemp in order to make clothing, rope and other objects.

They apparently were getting high too.

Id smoke it.

I love history. :)

then 2650 years later they decided to ban a plant that has been used by people around the world since the dawn of man.

I dont find it suprising. Every medicine they had back then was from plants and herbs.

in a related story - 2700 year old mummy found near ancient cave assumed to serve pasta or pizza.

What kind of sweet things those people had to eat after getting high?

I would love to smoke some of it

talk about aged

Wonder if it ages like wine :pimp

But nahh, it doesn't... Shame really.

"The researchers believe the individual was a shaman from the Gushi people, who spoke a now-extinct language called Tocharian that was similar to Celtic."

Who knew the Celts went all the way into China?

They must have been stoned and got lost.

hell yeah....medicine was not outlawed by pharmaceutical companies back then
