Answer

The ruler was first invented by a Greek egg Theodorus of Crete. Theodorus is also credited for inventing the lathe, bronze casting, the level, carpenter's square and the lock and key! This man may have been the forefather to our intelectual civilization!

AnswerMeasuring devices of different types were invented by all of the ancient civilizations that erected buildings and engineering projects. 'Cubit rods' have been found in the tombs of Egyptian architects, some with hieroglyphic markings, one that folds into a leather case. The earliest relics of such measuring devices are found in the Indus Valley (northwest section of the Indian subcontinent) dated to around 2600 BC. Rather than cubits or meters, these devices use feet and inches and are considered extremely accurate even by today's standards.
