Ancient Chinese Football Game - Cuju | Ancient Chinese Culture

The Roman game harpastum is believed to have been adapted from a Greek team game known as "ἐπίσκυρος" (episkyros)[8][9] or "φαινίνδα" (phaininda),[10] which is mentioned by a Greek playwright, Antiphanes (388–311 BC)

China football 476 bc, Chinese wins

(476 BC -221 BC). Cuju, literally means ball kicking, is an ancient Chinese game which is regarded as the origin of present-day football.

Cuju has a long history in China. Legend has that it was invented by the Yellow Emperor (2600 BC- 2500 BC). the legendary ancestor of the Chinese nation. He then used it to train his soldiers. However, some believed that it first appeared during the Warring States Period (476-221 BC).

Well, if my civilization invented football; I really would not be shouting about it from the rooftops. I can't think of a less cerebral sport if I tried. It is a bunch of guys kicking a ball trying to score a goal. How appropriate that a sport like football which could be devised by a retard is attributed to the Chinese civilization and that a sport like Chess is attributed to the Indian civilization.

An interesting bit I heard on QI was that the Chinese invented Porcelein which in the end could have resulted in China falling behind technically since once they had porcelein, they didn't have any requirement for glass. Glass was also used to make lenses in spectacles which allowed Europeans to stay productive well into their old age while the Chinese intellectuals had to retire early because of bad eyesight.

Facinating story.

It could be worse - I could be Chinese. They would stop calling it IQ then - just call it SQ. S standing for Stupidity; Q for Quotient and I bet the Chinese would top the charts in the SQ stakes.
