Different forms of state/government taxation in one form or another have been used by various national authorities for many centuries. The earliest records of a system of taxation is that of the Pharoahs of ancient Egypt, who made regular tours of their kingdom(s), collecting taxes as they went.

This particular method of tax collection goes back about 5,000 years, as shown in records dated to the period around 3000 BC to 2800 BC.
