How the Freediving Started?

In the ancient times to get the food and harvesting resources like sponge and pearl or to search for the sunken valuables along with the help to the military campaigns, there was a need for divers who can dive deeply into the sea. But because there were very less equipments to cater the divers, the divers often faced some problems like blacking out or decompression or a sickness coming out of decompression as well. The first incident of recreational or professional freediving is found in the ancient Greece as both Plato and Homer have a mention of a sponge for the usage of bathing.

Since then many more countries have joined the freediving sport and it was in Japan about 2000 years ago when the freediving was started. As the maritime trade expanded there was more need of freedivers as more and more shipwrecking incidents started to happen. So the freedivers who can dive deep in to the sea, almost 50 feet can reclaim the important wreckage of the ship. This is all about the ancient time, but then the freediving has become a sport also in the modern time and it is very much popular as well.
