Best Answer

The principles on which the telephone is based were discovered many years before the work of Alexander Graham Bell. Bell patented a telephone apparatus in 1876, having worked on its development since 1865. The US government started a court case to cancel Bell's patent. The suit claimed that the patent was fraudulent and based on the work of Antonio Meucci (1808-1889), an Italian immigrant educated in mechanical engineering and design, who had designed a telephone in the 1850's and gave a public demonstration of it in 1860 on New York's Staten Island, and Johann Philipp Reis, a German inventor who developed a similar device.

Well my guess would be that he wanted people to communicate through it. Would you know his name if he hadn't invented the phone?
