The history of mirrors dates back to ancient times when mankind first saw reflections in a pond or river and considered it magic. Polished stone or metal was used in the first early man-made mirrors. Later glass was used in combination with metals like tin, mercury, and lead to create mirrors.
Today, combining glass and metal is still the design used in almost all modern mirrors. Mirrors made by coating flat glass with silver or gold foil dates from Roman times and the inventor is unknown.

mirrors werent invented by any one recorded person. they started out though as highly polished silver. one of the properties of silver is that it reflects 95% of light. it reflects so much light that it sometimes looks like it is white
