1) The true origin of the Star of David, more properly called "the Shield of David" is unknown, though there are many legends.
2) In all honesty, the Star of David is little more than a simple hexagram made from 2 equilateral triangles of the same size yet pointed in opposite directions. It is most probable that hundreds, if not thousands,, of different people were merrily decorating their homes and possessions with this very symbol long before David and the 12 tribes of Israel ever existed. Because of this, no one will ever know for sure which prehistoric human being 'created' this naturally occurring geometric figure (snowflakes, white lilies, and pomegranates) but it most certainly was NOT King David.
So, the legends surrounding the so-called 'Star of David' have basically nothing to do with the identity of who invented this six-pointed hexagram. It is assumed that many different groups of people scattered throughout the world were already familiar with the symbol long before a young King David chose it to be his personal insignia (and then later as his royal family Coat of Arms).
With all this in mind, it would be safe to say that no one knows who 'created' the basic form of the hexagram and its distant origins will always remain shrouded in mystery. But when it comes to the fairly specific history of just one specific hexagram known as the the 'Star of David', one may state with confidence that it was none other than King David himself, which was then carried on by his son Solomon (Seal of Solomon) and so forth.
