Namaste Amanbeer ! 

 

The historical antiquity of yoga if seen academically goes back to pre-history where on the  cave walls we can find such descriptions . So Historically to put it straightfoward , it's presence can be seen from the Harappan civilization ( one of the oldest one parallel to mesopotamian ) . We find seals of Yogi stiing in meditative postures , banyan trees , animal motifs etc which gives substantiates yoga practises presence during that time . Now every day new researches are also coming up with emergence of new  scientific methods of archeology . And this is again to refer and refer on constant basis .
