From the description, a 6ᵗʰ century Greek scientific drawing of the plant.
I was looking on google scholar for ancient depictons of cannabis. That one might be the oldest we know yet.

Hemp grown for fiber in Kentucky has been shown to contain a substantial degree of... potency. H. C. Wood, in 1869, prepared an alcoholic extract of hemp grown near Lexington and proceeded to test the product himself. A large [oral] dose (20 to 30 grains) produced marked effects and, on subsequent occasions, milder but definite effects were obtained with doses as low as 1/4 grain. This latter dose is lower than the usual dose of the Indian extract and was probably the result of a more than usually selective extraction. Houghton and Hamilton in 1908 concluded from animal experiments that the Kentucky hemp was fully as active as the best imported Indian product. In any event, it is clear that the potentiality of hashish abuse has always existed with this type of hemp production.

I was born and raised in Louisville Kentucky and in the late '60s - early 70s My friends and I used to go to Shelbyville, which was about 30 mi outside of Louisville and pick wild hemp in abandoned cemeteries.
We did, in fact, get high but it wasn't anything like Meshmacon (Michaocan).
In the 30s-40s, Shelby county Kentucky was the number one hemp producing area in the entire US.
I own this bookSome stuff from the seventies....
including ...L. Cherniaks ;Book of Cannabis , Book of Hashish,
early High Times and various other publications...
Please add stuff if you have it. I enjoy looking at the old stuff and have been a collector of this stuff since I bought my first high times in 78.

Some of these closely resemble the images I just posted in the Tripweed section. Lambsbread and Ethiopian in particular. Some well designed genetic testing would be a revelation in relation to some of these strains wouldn't it?
I posted this in a different thread, but was asked to post here too .
Here are 4 seeds and 6 vials of "plant material" from the Oseberg viking grave, dated 834, marked Cannabis sativa, kept at the University of Oslo, Archeological dep. It was found 1904 in the Oseberg ship grave.

This is one of a multiple of cannabis seed and pollen accessions found in viking graves and settlements in Scandinavia. For a long time, this was presented as seeds only, assumed for fibre or food. But, you don't carry "plant material" for food or fibre, do you? Interestingly, the woman carrying the leather pouch of seeds and "plant material" - cannabis - , had several painful ailments, like arthritis and Norwegian sources says cancer. So archeologist now believes it was for medicinal purposes. The list of other gravegoods is extensive, in the ship there were all the most important objects you might need to settle and start a new life.

In the grave, skeletons of two women were found. One presumed to be a queen, the other there are more uncertain theories. "According to Per Holck of the University of Oslo, the younger woman's mitochondrial haplogroup was discovered to be U7.[13] Her direct maternal ancestors came to Norway from the Pontic littoral, probably Iran.[14]"
(This has not been confirmed yet.)
So perhaps what the vikings grew were Iranian landraces? Turkish? It seems medicinal cannabis in Norway has a very, very long history! 1.200 years!

Some additional studies, analysis of old samples from viking settlements which expands the timeframe of cannabis cultivation in Norway even more.
"Sosteli used for 900 years
The new study also expands knowledge about other aspects of Sosteli's history. Previously, it was believed that this type of abandoned farm was abandoned in the 5th century.
The new investigations show signs of [hemp] cultivation from the year zero until the year 900."

However: "Sosteli lies up against the Setesdalsheiene and far from known centers of power in the Iron Age. It is not a natural place to start growing hemp. - The real introduction of hemp cultivation must have come much earlier than it came to Sosteli, says Stylegar [archeologist]."
From the excavation at Sosteli farm, Norway, 1954.
