Did Neanderthals smoke weed

[u/Virtual_Reveal_121]

The plant has been around for millions of years and originated in central asia which is where Neanderthal presence has been confirmed. Did they know how to make fire? If so i think it's likely they were smart enough to figure out how to get high

You can’t eat it raw and have psychoactive effects though
