The first artificial lighting can be traced back to prehistoric times with the use of torches and oil lamps. However, the invention of the modern electric light bulb is credited to Thomas Edison, who developed a practical and long-lasting version in 1879. His work built upon earlier developments by inventors such as Sir Humphry Davy, who created the arc lamp in the early 1800s, and Joseph Swan, who independently developed a similar incandescent lamp around the same time as Edison.
