Copyright is often not licensed, but it is very normal for it to be, e.g. CC-BY, GPL, and all that. A fishing license grants you a right to fish, without which you can't legally fish. A drivers license grants you a right to drive, without which you can't legally drive. A copyright license grants you a right to copy (perform, translate, etc.), without which you can't legally copy (with a few well known exceptions for expired term, fair use, etc.). "Agreement to license" is redundant. The question ought to be, what documentary evidence do we have that the grant occurred?
