Didn’t people smoke in the Middle East or Asia before Columbus? I imagine Europeans would have got it from them first. Though if not tobacco, maybe marijuana or opium?

Not unless you go against mainstream history and believe that trade with the Americas occurred long before the conquistadors made their way there.

Tobacco is indigenous to the Americas.

Then tobacco makes sense. What about stuff like marijuana and opium though? Also native to the americas?
