Nobody - mathematics is not a science, it is a property of the natural world. 1+1 always equal 2 - nobody can invent or discover that. The square of the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle is always the sum of the squares of the other two sides, regardless of when someone discovers it.
At least, that is the argument advanced by most mathematicians. There are some people who argue that mathematics is not a property of the natural world, and that it is in fact constructed by humans. These people do not normally give a clear point when mathematics first developed, however.
Mathematics is something that was developed and improved since start of mankind as cooking, clothing, numbers, and languages. What began as a way to keep track of herds and hides eventually developed into a means to analyze natural phenomena and to design real-world machines.
Mathematics and mathematical evolutions are usually connected with different civilizations such as Ancient Egyptian, Chinese, Greek, Islamic, and Western civilizations.
The first caveman who wanted to trade some buffalo meat in return for
a couple of days with his neighbor's wife needed math to calculate the
optimum meat conversion factor.
Answer
No single person invented mathematics and mathematical systems have been developed by different cultures independently. The mathematics in the Western Hemisphere can mostly be traced to roots in Mesopotamian, Egypt (especially for geographical use) and Babylon (especially for astronomical use). The strict concept of proofs and even axiomatizing is of Greek origin but likewise not attributable to a single inventor.
