Mercury ( well i am assuming you mean the element not the planet) has been known since ancient times so we dont quite know when it was discovered or by whom.
mercury is an element itself!!
Elemental mercury has been known since ancient times, dating back to civilizations like the Egyptians and Greeks. They were aware of its properties, but it wasn't until the early 16th century that it was formally distinguished as an element. The discovery is often credited to the alchemist Geber, who documented its unique characteristics.
