07 Marxh 1876 - ALEXANDER GRAHAM BELL PATENTS THE TELEPHONE: Following
the development of his prototype 'harmonic telegraph' device, Scotland-
born Alexander Graham Bell receives a US patent on a revolutionary new
form of instantaneous communication, the telephone.
Alexander Graham Bell, best known for his invention of the telephone, revolutionized communication as we know it. His interest in sound
technology was deep-rooted and personal, as both his wife and mother
were deaf. While there’s some controversy over whether Bell was the
true pioneer of the telephone, he secured exclusive rights to the
technology and launched the Bell Telephone Company in 1877. Ultimately,
the talented scientist held more than 18 patents for his inventions
and work in communications.
