Via Root:

Capers are mentioned in the 16th Century in Olivier de Serres' Theatre of
Agriculture and the Family of the Fields.  Root suggests a Saharan origin
and places them as a spice known to the ancient Greeks, but a late arrival.
Introduced by the Greeks to France around 600 BC.  Known to the Romans as
far back as their written records reach.
