WRESTLING ORIGINS
With the possible exception of track & field athletics, wrestling is the most ancient sport known to be continually practised competitively.
It was introduced into the ancient Olympics in 708 BC, shortly after the Games' recorded history began in 776 BC
Wrestling pre-dates the ancient Olympic Games.
Cave drawings of wrestlers from 3000 BC in the Sumero-Akkadian civilisation have been found. Similar wall paintings exist from ancient Egyptian civilisations circa 2400 BC
