Best Answer

The first documented person to practice polygamy is Lamech in the Old Testament of The Bible. His marriage to two wives is found in Genesis 4. Many other men in the Bible practiced polygamy, such as Abraham, Solomon, David, and Jacob. Polygamy is also found in many societies which do not believe in the Bible, and in most cases that practice dates to ancient times before written history.
