Black powder, also known as gunpowder, is a mixture of saltpeter (potassium nitrate), sulfur, and charcoal (carbon).
Impossible to say, but it definitely happened in China not long after they perfected the formula for black powder. The Chinese first used black powder to make various types of fireworks, including firecrackers. But eventually adapted black powder based fireworks technology to warfare by scaling upward.
I have a 1950s Louisville Slugger bat marked Black Beauty and also with Ted Williams stamped signature
Assuming you are of legal age to purchase, black powder or smokeless powder for reloading can be purchased from gun shops. Yes, proof of age is required.
Chances are that if you overload the charge in a revolver style black powder pistol, you can blow up the cylinder or blow the barrel off the end of the gun.
Yes it is concealed, but not illegal because black powder firearms are not considered a "firearm".
The BATFE website has the answer.

You need to consult a Black Powder loading manual
In the technical sense no it is not loaded via the muzzle of the gun, black powder revolver is accurate as terms go, but they do fall under the blanket of "muzzle loader" in general terms.
There are none produced that I know of, a 209 primer would be over kill in a revolver due to the small chamber and lower amounts of powder.
black power or cartridge rounds? Colt made the first "practical" revolver, so this was the first commercially successful cartridge revolver. I can't say about black powder... but you should read this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolver <><><> The first Colt revolvers were black powder handguns. The self contained cartridge was invented later.
Most recommend is 3F powder, either true black powder or the "synthetic" or black powder substitute equivalent and between 25 and 30 grains should due nicely.
Yes , but FFFG is recommended because it burns better in small cal. firearms.
not likely anyone keeps data on re-pro black powder pistols................
