摘      要：In this paper, the path through which the cycle axiom of hypergraphs was discovered will be retraced. The long process of discovery will be described, in particular how acyclic hypergraphs originated from the study of relational database schemes and how cycles of hypergraphs originated from the study of acyclic hypergraphs.
