We all have favorite cannabis rituals: rolling a joint at the end of a long day, baking favorite edibles to share with friends or packing a bowl for two to share with a significant other. But the importance of cannabis in society didn't start with our peace-loving past generations. Researchers have discovered many strains of cannabis burned during mortuary rituals as early as 500 B.C. In fact, it turns out that our ancestors used cannabis for ritual, medical and recreational use regularly. Some believed cannabis use facilitated the body and the afterlife. We can only wonder how much faster they would have gotten there with a little ArdentActivated bud.
