[HANASHIR:5114] Trope dates



As I embark on learning the tropes for Torah and Haftarah, I am wondering about 
the date of the origin of this system.  Music history texts credit the numes of 
Gregorian chant as being the first musical notation, however I have always 
wondered if the tropes came before and what their influences were.  Anyone know?
