How cool! This story on Tarot came from Pravda
The wisdom of Tarot Cards was created for centuries:
The Tarot cards first appeared in Europe in the 14th century. Some sources say they appeared supposedly about 1370. However, the origin of the cards is not yet defined exactly. Majority of researchers believe that Gypsies practicing card-reading brought them to Europe, or probably that the cards came together with knights who came back from crusades in the East
