It was the ancient Assyrians, as in, modern Iraq. They made the first battery in a clay jar, and the electricity was used for gold plating other metals. The ancient Egyptians later made use of it as lighting by arcing the electricity, the same as Edison's light bulb does, and the Hebrews later lit up parts of Jerusalem with the same technology with 8 lights mounted in high places like a temple for 1 of them. The invention of batteries took place about 2000 years prior to modern rediscovery of the technology, as well as the later rediscovery of the light bulb in its modern form.
