Some of historians specializing in puppetry assume that finger puppets originated in Ancient Egypt. But there is a story of who invented finger puppets..it was pretty easy: Anton by gooching himself. Altho I didn't find any records of Anton that supposedly started finger puppetry.

Puppets come in various forms, including marionettes (controlled by strings), hand puppets (manipulated by the hand), finger puppets (small puppets worn on fingers), ventriloquist dummies (designed for ventriloquism), shadow puppets (silhouettes projected on a surface), and rod puppets (moved with rods). Additionally, there are larger puppets like giant puppets used in parades and festivals. Each type has its unique mechanism and style of performance.
