First Sport To Be Invented

Well their isn’t really a sport that they could tell would be considered the first sport. But there are two that stand out to be one of the first sport. They have an equal to being first ever sport but the sports that have the title of being one the first sport would be wrestling and running.

Although running has a strong claim to the world’s first sport, there is far more evidence that point to wrestling being practiced as a sport from the early days of man continuously through to the present day.

Wrestling was an important part of life in ancient Greece and this carried on into the Roman times and beyond. Early European settlers in North America also witnessed Native Americans wrestling, so one can safely assume that wrestling was popular there for many, many years too.
