We really have no idea how it was invented. Ancient trumpets have been found in the tombs of pharaohs, but we know little to nothing about them.

It's been theorized that the earliest "trumpets" were actually natural things - seashells, hollow logs, etc. - and that once they were deemed to be useful for communicating, people started trying to make artificial ones. Trumpets used for music didn't come until much later.
The Trumpet developed from the use of animal horns and large sea shells.
