Ganja, Azerbaijan Wikipedia Meanwhile, Britain had begun importing indentured labor from India in 1845 and brought around 40,000 workers from there to Jamaican plantations by 1917. As you might expect, these laborers brought their knowledge of ganja and other cannabis preparations. The plant went underground but experienced a revival of sorts in the 1960s and 1970s. But it was still illegal, so users had to come up with code words when mentioning its use. Cannabis was reefer, spliff, doobie, airplane, green goddess, grass, asparagus, and ganja, depending on who was using it, and it is the latter word we are focusing on today. It is situated at the north-eastern foothills of the Lesser Caucasus mountain ranges on the Ganjachay river. Ganja—known then as Yelisavetpol—was one of the main sites of the Armenian–Tatar massacres of 1905–07. In 1918, Ganja became the temporary capital of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic, at which point it was renamed Ganja again, until Baku was recaptured
