Although probably originating earlier, the first accounts of fagging appeared in the late 17th century.: 23  Fagging sometimes involved physical abuse: 23–25  and/or sexual abuse. Although lessening in severity over the centuries, the practice continued in some institutions until the end of the 20th century.: 23–25
