I notice on the wikipedia bong page you reference ' 2400 year old Scythian gold bongs'. Bongs were invented in China in the 16th century during the Ming Dynasty. If you look at the pictures of the 'bongs' they are actually solid gold buckets. If you know what a bong looks like. It's likely the Scythians placed cannabis and other herbs inside the buckets and then added hot rocks, vaporizing the herbs. Likely inside a tent that would hold the herb vapors longer. If you look at the pictures there's no evidence of burning or charring in the items. It's likely this story was sensationalized because 'solid gold bongs' is much more interesting then 'gold cannabis buckets discovered'. I imagine gold would not be a good item to make a water pipe, which are usually made of clay, ceramics, or glass. I have never heard of a water pipe made of metal.
