That was an interesting post on Andrew Jackson, something I didn't know.
What I do remember is that he was our a "Southerner"-type President, and maybe he shared the views of slaveowners, I'm not sure.

Most experts belive that the disapperance of the Mayans in such a short span of time was caused by a severe drought that lasted for several years. This drought destroyed crops and obviously led to a shortage of water for drinking and irrigating. :smokin:

Mayans, I believed , were simply absobed into the Aztec empire when the latter grew exponantially. Then, literally, they all moved to Mexico City, which is one of the reasons it's the biggest city in the world.

Tenotitchitlan, the aztec Capitol, Mexico City.

Good comment Calling it Mexico City referring to 500 years ago is an anachronism

The ancient south american cultures have gone through many cultural shifts throughout the last couple thousand years. The aztec civilization was actually a very minor player early on in central american history, they were so defeated and beaten that their enemies left them to die on the Tenochtitlan lake. The aztec were very ingenious people though and they founded the basis of hydroponics today using raft systems to cultivate food. When they expanded their empire they still kept their water based capitol and even today food is cultivated in the nutrient rich water of the Tenochtitlan lake. I don't know if they cultivated cannabis on it or not, but if they smoked it in their early exsistance on Tenochititlan then they most likely grew it hydroponicly.

As to "their herb" it's not their herb. Cannabis isn't native to the Western world. In fact cannabis was taken from present day india, and nepal to be propagated all the way throughout asia and onward accross the natural land bridge that formed between present day russia and alaska. Cannabis moved throughout north america with the nomatic tribes and later down in through central and south america.

Yeah, that's not what I meant. They left their bongs behind. And whatever was left of their herb, was probably smoked by other tribes.
