History

A boy depicted playing with a yo-yo on an ancient Greek Attic red-figure kylix. Dated ca. 440 BCE, Antikensammlung Berlin (F 2549). Ancient Greek yo-yos were made of terracotta, wood or metal. The yo-yo is thought to be a variation of the diabolo which originated in China. pic.twitter.com/sPa6oqy0R2
