There are many myths surrounding the time when pasta actually entered into Italian food.  The most common of these myths is that Marco Polo introduced it to the country from his extensive travels.  However, pasta was already a part of Italian food during Marco Polo's life.  To get to the heart of the matter you must travel even further back in history.  In fact the most accepted theory on the introduction of pasta to Italian food takes us back to the eighth century.  During this time the Arab invasions greatly influenced Italian food and are the most likely start of pasta's life in Italy.
