Cannabis: Lost Sacrament of the Ancient World

Více o knize

The book explores the deep-rooted connection between cannabis and humanity, tracing its use back over ten thousand years for various purposes, including textiles and rituals. It highlights the widespread adoption of cannabis in ancient cultures like the Egyptians and Persians, contrasting it with the ancient Hebrews' rejection of its use. A pivotal moment occurs with a 1936 hypothesis suggesting that certain Hebrew words referred to cannabis, which gained traction after archaeological discoveries in 2020 confirmed its ritual use among the Hebrews, reshaping historical narratives.
