You can always use the wayback machine to see the first pages archived at perlmonks.thepen.com, but that only has a few pages, and only goes back to September 2001.
Unfortunately, perlmonks denies robots, so the monastery itself isn't archived there.

Here's an idea for you. Check out the early nodes of some of the gods. Many changes that have taken place here are outlined in some of thier nodes, specifically vroom.

Fine nodes! I was trying to read the first, simply writing the node in the GET parameters. But I've found (on the first nodes): permission denied. See with your eyes... What kind of mistery?.....:-(

In the beginning, there was a Larry, and Larry said "Let there be Perl", and there it was, and it was good. Then came O'Reilly, seeing the work of the larry, and saying "Let there be Camels", and it was good. But slightly funny looking, smelly, and temperamental. And then a bunch of monks came, to worship the camel, chanting something incomprehensible, blessing the camel, and eating lots of strawberries. What, no strawberries you say? Well that's a boring story then.

I keep a list of node archeological finds on my homenode. It may answer some of your questions, or at least give you a taste of what things used to be like.

Did you look here
or here?
Not sure how much history is there, though.
UPDATE:
Changed the first reference to "Perlmonks FAQ", instead of to the page to comment on this node. Thanks to QM for pointing that out. That clears up the mystery on why my node is getting negative voting. I guess I'm broken in now. Heh heh heh.
