Traffic lights have been in widespread use since the 1920s. Roundabouts, in their modern form, were developed in the 1960s. There were circular road junctions since the early years of the 20th century, but the rules and conventions governing their use were markedly different from modern roundabouts.

What did came first the vehicles or the traffic lights?

Logically, unless there were reasons to control traffic, there would have been no reason to create or install traffic lights. Because "traffic" generally comprises vehicles (motorized or otherwise), the traffic was probably there prior to the lights. Certainly, there were mechanical traffic signals that preceded traffic lights, not to mention traffic officers who once stood at busy intersections to direct traffic on a regular basis.
