The cache of cannabis is about 2,700 years old and was clearly "cultivated for psychoactive purposes," rather than as fibre for clothing or as food, says a research paper in the Journal of Experimental Botany

    Too bad the shelf life of pot is only about 2 years(depending on the strain).

    780 grams worth :)

    "The extremely dry conditions and alkaline soil acted as preservatives, allowing a team of scientists to carefully analyze the stash, which still looked green though it had lost its distinctive odour."

    Wonder what would happen if you tried smoking it :mrgreen: . Probably so dry that it would catch fire.

    I often forget to to uncheck the little flag.

    On another note. Interesting find. Too bad they could not have germinated the seeds they found.
