Answer:

Some date jump roping to ancient China; however, the Western versions probably originated from 1600 A.D. in Egypt. What is known is that jump roping, in some form or another, spread through Europe to the Netherlands, and eventually to North America. Early Dutch settlers were some of the first jump ropers in America.
