Hi.
The first recorded swimming races were held in Japan in 36 B.C. However, ancient drawings and paintings depicting people swimming date back to 2500 A.D. in Egypt. Also, the first swimming event in the Olympics did not happen until 1896. Depending on what you are looking for swimming has a somewhat scattered history.
I hope that helped.
Thanks,

Swimming can be an adjective, e.g. swimming trunks, or 'a swimming head'. However, it can also be a noun, e.g. 'the sport of swimming', or a verb, 'the boy was swimming'.
The present participle of "to swim" it is more technically a gerund used as a noun adjunct. Colloquiallly, a "swimming head" (from a head that is swimming, or confused) is an adjective.
