Mumps is caused by the mumps virus, which was first identified in the early 20th century. The disease has been known for centuries, with historical accounts dating back to ancient times. However, the first documented case of mumps is attributed to a boy in the 17th century in England. The virus was later isolated in the 1940s, leading to the development of the mumps vaccine.
