However, by the 7th century BC , Theodore of Samos was credited with inventing the key, but it is believed that they were already in use long before. History has left traces indicating the possibility that the Chinese and Egyptian civilizations were the first to use the key.
The creation of the key in these civilizations goes back to a lack that man has had and that as time goes by that need continues to exist, it is to safeguard valuable objects, be they economic and/or sentimental.
Over time, both the key and the lock have been changing but maintaining their essence of providing security. These changes refer to the type of material, and its shape.
