History of LGBT Pride
Pre Ancient Greece

Relics displaying the prominence of the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans) community have been found from as far back as 12,000 BC, with artefacts and cave paintings having been found to confirm or at least imply the use of homosexual toys during sex. This included a carved double ended dildo for the use of two women and a rock engraving found in Addaura, Sicily, in which men and women dance around two cavorting sexually aroused male figures .Although there isn't much, it's still there and you have to remember that, so far as material goes, there is a lot that isn't known about Pre-Greek society as a whole, as many groups where nomadic.

In the 24th century BC Khnumhotep and Niankhkhnum's tomb was built in Egypt. It is believed that the two men may have been lovers, making this the first record of a possible homosexual relationship.
