The bounds of blaseball are unknown. However, certain records and myths have come to us from the ancient world suggesting that societies across the globe have been participating in the cultural event of blaseball for thousands of years.
Ancient Greece
Blaseball is said to have been brought to Greece from the East by Cadmus on his search for his sister, Europa. As such, Thebes is believed to have been the first Greek polis with a blaseball team, αἱ ἐλαῖαι (hai elaiai, 'the olives').
According to myth, Heracles played in the Hellenic League, where he was the first to introduce using a club to hit the blaseball.
