In the film "Midnight Express" what was the character Billy Hayes trying to smuggle out of Turkey?

This is a very good movie to show you just how tough the laws are in Turkey when it comes to drugs!

I was in Turkey(navy 82) as we were going on liberty the Turkish Police were handing out "Postcard"size warning cards. They said..."Welcome American Soldiers and Sailors to Turkey. 1 Puff of Hashish 2 years Prison. Possession of Hashish 25 years Prison. Attempts to Smuggle Hashish Life in Prison. "Enjoy Beautiful Turkey" Wild Place.💀💀💀💀💀

ls that the same as marijuana?
