A Documentation of Cannabis Used as an Intoxicant

Article Category: Society

Author Name: Candice R. Stiefel

Although hemp has been historically proven to have been utilized for over ten thousand years now as fiber, rope, and sustenance, it was a great deal later in history that folks finally figured out the psychoactive qualities of the plant. The initial evidence we have of such use dates back to Chinese Emperor Shen-nung around 2000 B.C. Indeed, that's nonetheless a very long time ago! Eventually, the understanding of marijuana as a potentially beneficial drug started to spread around the world, probably through established trade routes of the time. Indeed, the history of marijuana is quite fascinating, it?

The first ethnographic confirmation of hemp being smoked as an intoxicant was likely from the Scythians of the 7th century, as supported in 1929 by Professor S.I. Rudenko, a Russian archaeologist. Scientists have affirmed this concept through additional archaeological findings as recent as 1993. Ancient worlds in Mesopotamia and Peru used cannabis for the purpose of self-examination, as the "bicameral mind" of these civilizations would not enable them the ability to think in a way that would allow them to shift into consciousness and self-reflection.

In India, cannabis has consistently been a valued aspect of their way of life. In a compilation of holy books called the Vedas, the Indian deity named Siva was described as the god of "Bhang". Bhang is a beverage made with marijuana leaves, some type of milk, sugar, and spices. Today in India, Bhang could be loosely compared to what spirits is to the west. There is also a most strong form of cannabis called "Charas" in India, and it is used for religious purposes.

Originally in Africa, the Arab and North African traders spread the hemp plant throughout the rest of Africa, but they failed to illustrate any of the practical techniques by which to extract the volatile components of the plant for psychedelic use. Still, the tribes at some point understood to make drinks and, later, to smoke the plant as well. Until that time, however, they simply threw a bunch of cannabis on some cinders and had what might be called a "Breath-In" of sorts. Hey, anything that does the trick, right?

Over and all through the last several thousand years, hemp has been used beneficially as a spiritual, ritualistic, and reflective intoxicant. To this day, there are millions of folks wrestling to maintain the true integrity and credibility behind the myriad of valuable uses for this plant. Currently in the Us, there is a wholly committed push by a coordinated community of activists to gain full legality of marijuana on a countrywide level, with 16 states presently allowing for some kind of state-wide statute of allowed use for medical intents.
