Very interesting read. But it says that the earliest known use of cannabis as a psychoactive substance was in China 2700 years ago. I may be mistaken, but I thought I read that they discovered that it was being used in ancient Egypt some 5000 or 4000 years ago.
You can't be mistaken…you're an expert! :-)
