When abacus discovered?

Roughly 9000 years ago when some guy out for a walk tripped over one and said "Ouch, I just discovered the abacus! Too bad I don't know what an abacus is or if it even has a use. It doesn't even look pretty. The beads are just plain wood so no use taking it apart for them as my girl wouldn't like them." He then threw it over his shoulder, rubbed his sore toe until it felt better and resumed his walk. Of course the above story is all nonsense as mechanisms like the abacus are invented or designed, not discovered. However the date of 9000 years ago for the first one being made is not unreasonable, as most early cultures that used the abacus developed it long before developing writing or even oral history. Therefor we have no record of its invention.
