Germanium was discovered in 1886 by Clemens A. Winkler.
In 1886 a German chemist named, Clemens A. Winkler discovered germanium. He discovered the first trace of germanium in the mineral argyrodite, while isolating it. (But germanium rarely makes distinct minerals.) He purified it to find the new element. Before this in 1871 a chemist named, Mendeleev predicted there would be a new element, that would have properties similar to the ones in silicon. His predictions were proved to be true.
The name of Germanium comes from the Latin word Germania, which means Germany. Germanium is a metalloid element. Clemens Winkler discovered Germanium in 1886 in Germany.

Germanium is an element, not a compound.
Germanium was discovered in 1886 by Clemins Winker
Ekasilicon (Mendeleev's name for the element below Silicon, 1869) is named germanium since it was discovered (1886).Eka (from Sanskrit) means 'first' for first element downwards.
Germanium (Ge) is a natural element.
Mendeleev predicted that gallium belonged to the R2O3. Gallium was not discovered until 1874. The noble gases weren't discovered until 1894 through 1899.
