When did people find out about multiple types of cancer?

Hello.
Cancer is an illness that has been around for years and years, but seems to just have gotten worse. The word cancer actually came from a Greek words karkinos to describe carcinoma tumors by a physician Hippocrates (460–370 B.C), but even he was not the first to discover this disease. And this is kind of where we see the origin of the sickness, which is quite some time or people to have already cracked this “code”.

I hope this completely answers your question. I’m always happy to help.
