Was soccer an ancient olympic sport?

Answer 1

Yes it is in fact one of the oldest sports known to this day. Many cultures claim to have invented this sport, but the real creators are the Indians. I am not sure which tribe was the master mind behind the sport, but I do know they were the creators.
