I was under the impression that the earliest roots of the Latin Mass as we know it date back to the reforms of the Roman Missal under Pope St. Gregory the Great.

I don’t think Latin was an “official” Church language until (maybe) the 7th or 8th Century.

There was a Latin liturgy as far back as the 2nd Century, but do we have a copy of it?
