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?
