>>19324195well its not a 100 percent proven thing but its believed that the latin word calamus, equivalent to the hebrew word kaneh, used for the name of an herb in the bible used for incense and annointing oils, was possibly linked to the scythian word kapnobatai, which is where cannabis comes from. there are herbs called calamus and kaneh today but nobody knows if they are really the same calamus mentioned in the bible. kinda like soma of the vedas (a magical plant ingested by the ancient aryans when they conquered India, that supposedly granted them superhuman strength and visions of the divine world; however the identity of soma has long been lost for more than a thousand years, and there are multiple plants believed to be soma or its derivative, however its also possible that the Aryans overused soma and made it extinct, as even in the later period other plants were used at substitutes for soma, and its identity was beginning to fade)
