When was the brick invented?

Brick is a building material that is used to make walls, pavements and other elements in masonry construction.
The oldest discovered bricks, originally was made from shaped mud and dating before 7500 BC.
A brick is generally composed of clay-bearing soil, sand and lime or concrete materials.
Bricks are produced in many classes, sizes, types and materials and vary with region and time period but they are produced in bulk quantities.
