;)The cello was invented as a very large version of the violin, back in the 1500s. About a hundred years later, a violin maker named Antonio Stradivari started making cellos that stood upright, like the modern cello. You can hear cellos in small groups like the string quartet, as well as in the orchestra:0

Well, Andrea Amati is thought to have crafted the first example of a cello-shaped bass viol, and whether it was known as a violoncello or not is questionable. He made "The King" cello in the 16th century, and although it has been modified (made smaller in this case), the original cello is thought of to be the modern model of the baroque cello: wide. There were many viol-instruments during the quattrocento and the renaissance as a whole, but none approached the "modern-cello-look" of the Amati. Amati's sons and pupils went on to eventually teach Antonio Stradivari, the famed 18th century luthier. Sources: 15 year old music history knowledge/ (the internet)
Nobody knows who made the first bow, but it was Tourte who revolutionized bowmaking with a bow that bent towards the stick, not away from it. Tourte was called the "Stradivari of the Bow". Hope that helps.

Cellos, medium to large bow stringed musical instruments first became popular in the 17th century although variations can be dated as far back as the 9th century. Antonio Stradivari, a violin maker is thought to be the founder of the now familiar upright shape of the "modern" cello. Traditionally, a cello body is made from Spruce with a Maple base although modern versions are now often made from carbon fibers which are more humidity resistant and cheaper to produce.
