@piltrum Indeed. The foundation of the sha-lin order (sorry if i didn't wrote right) and with him also the first form of martial art in Asia can be dated not older than VI century BC. The greece-roman fight was introducet not too far from his asian counterpart (V century). For what concern the africans martial arts it is uncertain. Yet it is most plausible that the africans cultures were the first in the world who developed martial arts, for in Africa were the first civilizations.

The people of India and China had martial arts style in place long before Alexander the Great arrived. Those nations existed long before Greece, Macedonia and Rome.
