How far back did the squirrel exist?
What if I told you that squirrel's lived 130 million years ago?
http://www.abc.net.au/science/news/stories/2006/1811398.htm
ok, how about...
"The fossilized remains of 25,000-year-old ground squirrel nests..."
http://www.sfu.ca/mediapr/sfu_news/archives/sfunews11030513.html
But to answer your question definitively...
YES, there were squirrels in ancient Rome...
"About this area of Rome - Esquilino:
The Esquiline Hill is one of the famous seven hills of Rome. It gets its name from all the squirrels which used to live there before it was fortified in 510 BC."
