Since October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, I guess pink is this month's color. Anyway, I know that theres a painting called "Pinkie" which goes back a couple hundred years, perhaps even more. Maybe there is evidence that goes back further where pink is used. I doubt that it existed during the middle ages in Europe but maybe it existed in some other culture.

Look at some of the Frescoes from the Palace of Knossos on Crete. 1600 b.c. at least, and there's plenty of pink. Red, blue and yellow are the primary colors. White, as a painting pigment, has been around aloooooong time. Add white to red and what do you get? Pink.

'Scuse me? Do you think that colors are invented?
Did a rainbow not have orange before 1502?
