It has been shown that the colour wheel diagrams go back to at least 1611. Scientific records before that date trace four aspects of this history: circles based on seven colors, circles based on four colors, circles organized for a red-yellow-blue mixing system, and historical relationships between pigment primaries and spectral primaries. We conclude that color organization diagrams are at least as old as the 13th century, with the seven-color circle possibly the oldest found, the four-color next (14th-15th centuries), and the red-yellow-blue circle the most recent (18th century).
