Both for Python and Java is true that it is unclear when in emerged.
Pythons have existed for a looooooooong time, so has Jawa. But only
since Mankind has emerged they are called as such. I think Pythons
were known earlier in the west. Do Pythons live on Jawa? I don't know...
Are Pearls and Ruby's organic? I don't think so - which must mean that
they are even older.
C is definetely newer because it requires the alphabet.
Pascal is even newer, he lived very recently in this context.
