Who was the first to bring the story of the hashishin cult to Europe?

Explanation: In the lectures, the earliest major European transmission of the “Assassins/Hashishin” story is linked to Marco Polo’s travel narrative, while later scholars like Silvestre de Sacy helped systematize and popularize the “hashish” interpretation in European scholarship. (Lecture/Reading: Guba de Sacy, “de Sacy and the myth of the Hashishin”.)
