This is not a joke!!!

Researchers have stumbled upon a 2,700 years old ancient tomb in China's Xinjiang province that contained 789 grams of pot!

The tomb probably belonged to a Yuezhi shaman, say experts. The Yuezhi were Indo-European-speaking fair haired people who called the Xinjiang area home centuries ago.

One of the lead researchers said, "It was common practice in burials to provide materials needed for the afterlife. No hemp or seeds were provided for fabric or food. Rather, cannabis as medicine or for visionary purposes was supplied."

So, pot has always been 'medicinal'?!

In case you were wondering, the report says that 789 grams of pot would go for about $8,000 these days.

For the good or just ok stuff??
