Pigeons have lived alongside man for thousands of years with the first images of pigeons being found by archaeologists in Mesopotamia (modern Iraq) and dating back to 3000BC. The first biblical reference to the pigeon (or dove) was in the Old Testament of The Bible in the first millennium AC and was the story of Noah and the dove of peace. Pigeon guano was a highly prized fertiliser and considered to be far more potent than farmyard manure.
