No. It was King Uzziah, King of Judah. (2 Chronicles 26:16-21)
According to Old Testament professor, missionary and archaeologist Edwin R. Thiele, King Uzziah of Judah died in either 740 or 739 BCE(BC).
Amos prophesied when Uzziah was king in Judea and Jeroboam was king in Israel. Amos 1:1 (NKJV) The words of Amos, who was among the sheepbreeders of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel, two years before the earthquake. Uzziah was king over Judah from 792 to 740 B.C. and Jeroboam was king of Israel 793 to 753 B.C.
Not really sure who invented it. But what I know is that it was first used the King Uzziah of Judah, to defend the walls of Jerusalem
Uzziah (Azariah)was a King of Judah, and 2 Chronicles 26:16-23 tells us that because he became haughty, and tried to perform temple duties that only the priests were authorized to do, he was struck with leprosy and died.
Starting in Isaiah 1:1 the book addresses Judah and Jerusalem with warnings and prophecies from the time of King Uzziah (740 B.C.) to the time of Hezekiah (681 B.C.) leading up to the Babylonian captivity.
king Solomon son Rehoboam succeeded Solomon as King.
Amos was a prophet to Israel in "the days of Uzziah the king of Judah and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, the king of Israel, two years before the earthquake..."in the ninth century B.C.E. (Amos 1:1).
Hosea was not a king, but a prophet of God during the reigns of several kings...in particularly Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah(kings of Judah), and...Jeroboam the son of Joash, the king of Israel."(Hosea 1:1)
I believe it was the King Uzziah.

Yes, Isaiah had a close relationship with King Uzziah and served as his advisor. This closeness is evident in the biblical account of Isaiah’s call to prophethood, where he recounts his vision of the Lord in the year King Uzziah died.
