Nobody really knows. Bagpipes were invented in the Middle East a long time ago, and were probably introduces into Britain by the Greeks, or more likely the Romans. Both had contact with the Britons, and so either seems possible. They were certainly there when the Romans had been in Britain for a few years, as there are carvings of bagpipe players. How long the pipes took to reach Scotland is unknown, but Northumbria has their own set of similar pipes.

Its though bagpipes were invented in 1000 BC in Egypt! Though no one can be sure

Many if not most cultures around the world have had a form of bagpipes in their cultural history, as such its hard to pin down where the first set came from, but the earliest evidence of bagpipes is from about 1000BC.
