Assuming you mean "Who invented fish sauce?",

I doubt history knows a single person to invent fish sauce, but the origin of the sauce lies in, of course, Southeast Asia. Early fishermen lacked the boats and equipment capable of going into the deeper ocean to catch larger fish, thus they stuck close to shore and caught very small "junk fish" with little meat on them. As a way to extract the precious protein from them, they were layered in barrels with salt and left to ferment, then drained.
