Puppet theater is one of the varieties of puppet art, which includes cartoon and non-cartoon animated film art, pop puppet art and art puppet television programs. The art of puppeteers is very old - different countries arose their own, which later became traditional, types of puppets and types of performances. There is evidence of the existence of ritual mysteries in Egypt, during which women wore the doll of Osiris. In ancient Greece, the puppet theater existed in the Hellenistic era. The origins of the puppet theater are in pagan rituals, games with materialized gods. The mention of playing dolls is found in Herodotus, Xenophon, Aristotle, Horace, Marcus Aurelius, Apuleius [1]. However, puppet shows, relatively speaking, of the variety type and the art of puppet theater came to Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome with wandering groups of puppeteers from Ancient India (land and sea routes through Ancient Iran) and Ancient China. (O. Tsekhnovitser, I. Eremin. Petrushka Theater. - Moscow-Leningrad.: Gosizdat, 1927)
Folk puppet theaters of Ancient Rome are related to the ancient Roman comedy atellana with the comic hero-jester Mack, the prototype of the future Pulcinella.
