I really had to dig in my history for this, but this was a comment I made on another discovery that was made recently.

I recall there being evidence of coca, nicotine, & hashish found in some mummies in Egypt as well. The hashish isn't that remarkable but the coca and tobacco indicate some connection to South America. I'll see if I can't find an article or two.

That is pretty remarkable, I wonder how they travelled around!

I could only speculate. I know the LDS believe that some Jewish people travelled across the oceans in boats that resembled floating, flying saucers or floating clams.
