Hippocrates, a physician born in ancient Greece was the first to describe manifestations of the disease and relate them to the time of year and area where the patients lived when contracting the disease. However, the discovery of the protozoal cause of malaria wasn't discovered until 1889 by Alphonse Laveran.
