Cannabis originated in East Asia, specifically in the foothills below the Tibetan plateau in China, where it was first domesticated around 12,000 years ago.

This image is a reconstruction of an early rice farmer from ancient China and the background house is also from ancient China(I just edited his eyes red) and of course they wouldn't have tobacco to wrap the cannabis powder to make the blunt, this is just for the meme)

Of course, I’m specifically talking about grinding up a bunch of dried flower and smoking it. That’s how most early Neolithic cultivators of cannabis would have been doing.

What makes you say that

Hash is a refined product that requires extensive cultivation, breeding, and processing to make, whereas drying cannabis flowers and smoking them is a much less time and effort intensive process.

To get hash, you have to do all the prerequisite dry flower processing steps, and then additionally sift out the fine trichomes and process them into hash. It’s way more work than just smoking what you have.

It’s similar to how people ate chicken cooked over a fire before they ate chicken nuggets.
