Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

According to recordings of the history of puppetry, the use of these objects dates back thousands of years!. The first may have been shadow-puppets, which are mentioned in Greek philosophy!.

Puppetry flourished in China, originally in pi-ying xi, the "theater of the lantern shadows", or, as it is more commonly known today, as Chinese shadow theater!.

Religious portrayals in puppetry developed in South India with shadow puppets performing stories from Ramayana and Mahabharata!. Besides dealing with religious themes, Indian puppetry also conveyed useful messages from Panchatantra and other mythological and historical epics!.
