If you have ever seen natural grafts, where roots or shoots intertwined
and grew together, it's less of a stretch to figure how someone might
have seen that and tried artificial grafting.

A researcher friend says grafting mention goes as far back as the
ancient Greeks.
Before that the records are fewer, but I bet older cultures knew about
it. What
amazes me is how anyone EVER figured it out! It doesn't take much
observation &
logic to learn that some cuttings root easily, but deciding to try
grafting is a
bigger stretch. Wow.
