16th century
A formal arrangement was signed by John Dee, his wife Jane, his scryer, Edward Kelley and Kelley's wife Joanna on 22 April 1587, whereby conjugal relations would be shared between the men and their spouses. This arose following seances which apparently resulted in spirits guiding Dee and Kelley towards this course of action |

i think that to ideify this you would need to pin point the moment in out evolution that we changed from 'mating' with each other to pairing with one individual for life and then wanting to share them

Its gone on since year dot
Monkeys have always done it and we share the same genes
Man invented monogamy for some strange reason
Ta break it down to its absolute basic form it is a way of making sure the female gets impregnated and carries on the species (Yes i know no one wants ta get up the stick through swinging lol)but the instincts are still the same
Its just that society goes through stages where its frowned upon and thought of as wrong
One of the main reasons for this is mankind hates to admit that they are just animals at heart xx |

The church came up with monogamy so they could ensure the population was growing, to meet a ever expanding need for people after the black death.Women were given new found freedoms and marriage was often a business partnership as opposed to Love.
From the Church's perspective, marriage was the next best thing to becoming a nun or hermit as it provided a framework in which the (to them) unpleasant business of procreation could legitimately be carried out – something that was in great need in the early 1300s (Evidently in britain one day a year a woman was allowed to shag any guy she wanted ,as long as she chased him and caught him,it was evidently called Bell Day,this got around the baren wife or husband syndrome and everyone turned a blind eye.)
Re swinging well the OP meantioned neaderthals and it is felt this was the first formal swinging. Neaderthal farmers decided to get together and all shag a few women, collectively looking after any kids born within the community.Previous to that the nomadic way, was to impregnate and move on ,trouble is the next guy coming along would kill your kids and impregnate the woman.
Monogamy is not a natural state for humans ,if it were we would not have survived plagues and winters.And swinging is so much more fun
