In general, "money" is a medium of exchange. It has some "common value" to those who use it, and its "value" is recognized. That makes it useful to "transact business" or "buy" and "sell" goods, materials or services. That is how it came to be. There are instances of things being used as "money" before writing was invented. The "making of money" has evolved over thousands of years, and as to "who" made it, societies have for long periods coined or minted money as a medium of exchange and commerce.
