First Sentence

The word 'guerrilla' itself, meaning literally 'little war', derives from the activities of Spanish irregulars or partidas against occupying French forces between 1808 and 1814, but the first documented reference to guerilla warfare appears to have been in the Anastas, a Hittite parchment dating from the fifteenth century BC.
