OFF: Swearing

I've always wondered about when certain swear words may have actually come
in to use. For instance, whether the 'f' word was actually used during the
time of William Wallace, or was it just added to the movie dialogue to make
its use more colourful?

I suspect the latter.

Anyone came across any articles on the history of swear words?
