Cannabis (aka Marijuana or Hashish) was found on a 3rd century Punic warship near Sicily. It is speculated that it was for use by the crew.
A 1480 cookbook, De Honesta Voluptate et Valetudine, gives a recipe for marijuana bread to be used for medicinal purposes.
The use of the cannabis plant for hemp products such as rope and textiles is found through the ancient and medieval world.
