<<how far back can someone trace witchcraft?>>

If, by Witchcraft, you are referring to practices along the lines of low or sympathetic magick, I would hazard a guess that the very first Homo Sapiens practiced Witchcraft. It is in human nature to look for portents and mimic behaviour that seems to produce viable results (just look at the amount of sportspeople who wear "lucky" charms!)

However, if by Witchcraft you are referring to a systematised tradition of magick which has survived fairly intact, then I would hazard 50 or so years (IMG:style_emoticons/default/witch.gif)
