Who cultivated it? The people who are native to Central Asia.

When and why it became illegal varies from country to country. The link below gives a pretty good chronology for marijuana.
The wiki link gives a good history on it's legal status in the US.

Ummm... its a plant.
Its been around for a long time...
Can you be more specific about what you need?
I'm not sure about cultivation, but we know that George Washington grew hemp, which is the plant that it comes from.
It was made illegal thanks to a massive political push from several prominent businessmen in the early parts of the 20th century.
