What follows is the story of a deck of cards and of all the more-or-less believable claims that were made about its origin. This brief history was complied following sources that attempted accurate historic recalling instead of the most commonly shared semiotic, occultist story. However, despite all efforts all the found sources told a convoluted story due to the misinterpretation of age, sources and authorship common in any ancient text on magic and mysticism (Dummett, 1993). As such, the following text will recall the disproven stories that were told about the origin of Tarot, some factual sourced material and a modern description of its usage.
