that is a hard question. but i believe the first proper catapults were invented by the Greeks in 400 B.C .

but the thing is you have menny other country/nations that have there own

like the shadouf of Egypt . it was the shadouf that most were based of of.

so in a tecnical way you could say the people of Egypt.

and the Chinese. have thair own form of catapult aswell.
