The force of attraction increases as an electron and a proton approach each other. And it varies inversely as the square of the distance between the particles. The electron and the proton have a negative electrostatic charge and a positive electrostatic charge respectively. Each charge-and the force associated with that unit of charge-is constant-and equal.
There are pools/baths dating as far back as the Ancient Greeks and Ancient Egypt however I believe there would have been something far more prehistoric than this (albeit far less advanced). The first heated swimming pool was built by Gaius Maecenas of Rome in the first century BC. Gaius Maecenas was a rich Roman lord. The great bath at the site of Mohenjo-Daro was most likely dug during the 3rd millennium BC. This pool is 12 by 7 meters, is lined with bricks and was covered with a tar-based sealant.
The Marco Polo swimming game originated in the 1960s, but its history is unknown. The game itself is named after an Italian explorer in the 13th and 14th centuries who traveled to China with his father and uncle. When he returned to Italy and told of his travels, he inspired others to venture East pursuing wealth.
