When was the cigarette invented?

According to the research of archaeologists, smoking was recorded as early as 1800 BC to 2000 BC. 1492, two crew members of Columbus, Jerez and Torres, found that Cuban natives lit dry cigarettes and smoked the smoke they emitted. Jerez tried smoking. He became the first smoker in Europe. 15 18 years, Spanish explorers discovered that Aztecs and Mayans smoked grass with empty reeds, and the Spanish also learned to smoke, so the first cigarette was produced. 16 12 years, John Rolver planted the first acre of commercial tobacco in Virginia, USA. 1843, French tobacco companies began to produce Spanish-style cigarettes, which were officially named "cigarettes" in French, from which the word English cigarettes came. 188 1 year, and the cigarette making machine with a daily output of 120000 was patented. Before that, cigarettes were all made by hand. 65438-0924, American Reader's Digest first published an article reminding people that smoking is harmful to health. 1966, a new sign began to be printed on American cigarette packaging: be careful! Smoking is harmful to health. The tobacco industry has provided 2.3 million jobs for Americans, and these people have brought more jobs to the medical, fire fighting, laundry, pharmaceutical and other industries. Archaeologists found in Palo City, Arizona, USA that in 650 AD, there were large pieces of tobacco leaves, side-by-side pipes and residual soot in the caves where Indians lived. These relics, after instrumental analysis, contain nicotine, which is inferred to be tobacco leaves. Archaeologists once found a hollow straw with a tube in a cave at an altitude of 4000 feet in the Madre Mountains of Mexico, which was proved to be the product of 700 years ago by radioactive measurement. If so, it is not only more than 200 years earlier than Columbus' discovery, but also the originator of modern cigarettes. However, this historical miracle remains to be further verified by archaeologists.
