Almost stereotypical of the Rastaman is the use of herb. This needs to be set straight: not all Rastas smoke marijuana. The majority of Rastas, however, prefer to smoke ganja. Ganja is seen not as a 'drug' or something to get 'high', but as a spiritual aid. It gives Rastas insight and helps meditation. Marijuana is sometimes referred to as the "Holy Herb" and Rasta legend states that it grew on King Solomon's tomb, perhaps the wisest person from the Bible. Norman Hugh Redington protests the Rasta stereotype in his "Sketch of Rastafarian History" that "pious Rastas do not smoke marijuana recreationally" but rather smoke, as Macka B sings, "fer good meditation."

The city was most likely founded in the 5th century AD. To explain the etymology of "Ganja", people refer either to the Persian word ganj (گنج: "treasure, treasury", of Persian origin), or to the genç ("young"), which is of either Kurdish or Turkic origin
