ResourcesAncient Egypt, Greece, India, and Rome
Some of the earliest evidence we have of ancient people using CBD comes from Ancient Egypt. In the 1200s BCE, Pharaoh Ramses II was known to advocate that citizens use the hemp plant for medicinal purposes. In fact, Ramses II was such a strong supporter of the plant that it was found buried with him in his tomb. Clearly, the Ancient Egyptians believed that there was a connection between cannabis and the gods.
In Rome, hemp was used to treat headaches and other pains throughout the first and second centuries. We know that CBD has much more ancient origins though, with cannabis being used in religious ceremonies in India in 2000 BCE. This shows the spiritual connection that the ancients attributed to this plant and its connection to megalithic wonders.

Should You Take CBD at Megalithic Sites?
CBD is a harmless substance that is legal in most of the world, but not all of it. Be sure to check the regulations in whichever country you happen to be in. Taking the products can add to the spiritual feelings that arise when meditating near a megalithic site. That’s not because you’ll feel high, but because of the calming effects of CBD.This particular element of the hemp plant is naturally anxiety-reducing. This can help to focus the mind on the ancient wonder before you and help you to feel a deep spiritual connection to your ancestors. Smoking cannabis at megalithic sites isn’t unheard of but it’s not recommended in a place where doing so is a criminal act.

If you haven’t tried CBD, then you might feel comforted to know that it’s been used without a problem since the dawn of humanity. Using it yourself connects you with early humans and helps you to form a spiritual connection with them.
