According to Psychology Today, the Vedas and Kama Sutra of India also have many chapters describing kisses. Some anthropologists believe that the Greeks learned Indians how to kiss when Alexander the Great invaded India in 326 BC. However, there is no definitive evidence that the kiss originated in India.
