Sukan basketball mula diperkenal pada 1891. Bermakna permainan basketball baru berusia seratus tiga puluh tahun. Siapakah yang memperkenal atau yang mencipta basketball? Penciptanya adalah Dr James Naismith (1861-1939). Ia mula diperkenal di gymnasium sebuah kolej di Springfield Massachussetts.

Petikan how it all started? - link.

It was the winter of 1891-1892. Inside a gymnasium at Springfield College (then known as the International YMCA Training School), located in Springfield, Mass., was a group of restless college students. The young men had to be there; they were required to participate in indoor activities to burn off the energy that had been building up since their football season ended. The gymnasium class offered them activities such as marching, calisthenics, and apparatus work, but these were pale substitutes for the more exciting games of football and lacrosse they played in warmer seasons.

Origin Nama Bartholomew

Selalu juga kita jumpa nama Bartholomew. Dari mana datang nama Bartholomew?. Antara nama Bartholomew yang disebut dalam sejarah;

• Bartholomew Dias (died 1500), Portuguese maritime explorer, first European to sail round the Cape of Good Hope.

Bartholomew (Ancient Greek: romanized become Bartholomaîos; Latin: Bartholomaeus; Armenian: Բարթողիմէոս; Coptic: ⲃⲁⲣⲑⲟⲗⲟⲙⲉⲟⲥ; Hebrew: romanized: bar-Tôlmay; Arabic: بَرثُولَماوُس, romanized: Barthulmāwus, was one of the twelve apostles of Jesus according to the New Testament. Some identify Bartholomew as Nathanael or Nathaniel, who appears in the Gospel of John (1:45-51; cf. 21:2), although this is not supported by the Gospels, Acts, or any early, reliable Christian tradition.

Petikan wiki - link:

Bartholomew is an English or Jewish (generally also Christian) given name that derives from the Aramaic name meaning "son of Talmai". Bar is Aramaic for "son", and marks patronyms. Talmai either comes from telem "furrow" or is a Hebrew version of Ptolemy. Thus Bartholomew is either "son of furrows" (i.e., rich in land) or "son of Ptolemy".

Bartholomew (Barry) is English or Scottish but also a Jewish surname with the same meaning as the above as a given name.
