There's a small draw-back with this one- it starts off slow (unless you are "into" Maslow's hierachy) and the style is a bit "dry". But then you get down to the "Cannabis in South and Central Asia" section (sample below) and there are all those links to the studies with all the "juicy" details. Peak-experience and the entheogenic use of cannabis in world religions. (USA) (full – 2020) Peak-experience and the entheogenic use of cannabis in world religions in: Journal of Psychedelic Studies Volume 4 Issue 3 (2020) "In the Yanghai Tombs near Turpan in Central Asia, excavations resulted in the discovery of a 2700-year-old grave of a Caucasoid shaman whose accoutrements included a large cache of superbly preserved cannabis, presumably deployed as a medicinal or psychoactive agent or as an aid to divination—thus providing some of the oldest documentation of cultivated cannabis as a pharmacologically active agent (Russo et al., 2008, p. 4171). Cannabis production seems to have been continuous in the region for thousands of years, and the area around the Tarim Basin remained a major cannabis producing center until the 19th century (Peri, 2016, p. 141)."
