The writings of Marco Polo (1273) describe the use of hashish by a sect of warriors following the Persian tribal leader Al - Hassan around the year 1090 who became known as 'Assassins' (derived from Al - Hassan). Although the evidence actually suggests that Assassins probably did not use hashish in the way described by Polo, it does indicate that Europeans were familiar with cannabis as a

psychoactive drug in the 13thcentury . It is possible that from Hassan the term 'hashish' developed for the recreational smoking of cannabis; and the term assassin for those on expeditions to kill leaders of enemy factions.
