The earliest recorded effect of hypoxia was that of Teen Han Shoo around 30 BC in describing a journey from the western regions to the Hindu Kush in Afghanistan. Father Joseph de Acosta in circa 1539-1600 described his physical symptoms when walking in the Andes. The invention of ballooning in the 18th century provided the impetus for research into the effects of hypoxia.Citation DetailsTitle: Historical perspectives regarding our understanding of physical performance during hypoxia.Author: E.R.
