according to wikipedia the charachter idea of the character iago comes from ........ "The character's source is traced to Giovanni Battista Giraldi Cinthio's tale "Un Capitano Moro" in Gli Hecatommithi (1565). There, the character is simply "the ensign." Iago is a soldier and Othello's ancient (ensign or standard bearer)"
