The Caput bonae Spei hodiernum ("The Present State of the Cape of Good Hope") is a description of the Cape Colony and the Khoikhoi people by Peter Kolb (1675–1726), a German astronomer and naturalist who spent nearly a decade at the Cape of Good Hope from 1705 to 1713. First published as a folio in Nürnberg in 1719, the work was translated into Dutch, English and French, and reissued in an abridged German edition in 1745. It was for several decades the principal European source on the Cape and its indigenous inhabitants.

Chapter XVI of the first part, on food and drink (Nahrungs-Mittel), contains the earliest detailed European account of cannabis use among the Khoikhoi, including a description of the plant they call Dacha, its effects, its preparation mixed with tobacco and its role as a travel provision. Chapter XVII, on childbirth, records the use of Dacha in obstetric medicine and contains the statement that the Khoikhoi used Dacha before tobacco was known to them, placing cannabis use at the Cape before Dutch settlement in 1652. read more →

Knowledge translation and evidence use in medicinal cannabis policy: An evidence brief on regulation, effectiveness, safety and stakeholder support in Colombia

A knowledge-translation study from the Unit of Evidence and Deliberation for Decision Making at the University of Antioquia in Medellín, reporting how an evidence brief on the regulation, effectiveness, safety and stakeholder support of medicinal cannabis was assembled and put before Colombia's Ministry of Health. Its interest for the corpus is procedural rather than botanical: it documents how research evidence and stakeholder opinion were marshalled into a national cannabis regulatory process, in a producer country whose policy record the wiki otherwise holds through enforcement reporting.
