Certainly, zero displays this duality: The void is as old as time, but it was a human innovation to harness it with a symbol.

Zero can be seen
as present absence — it’s a
(very) odd number.

Or absent presence?

In answer to your query, a short poem (sort of)
Who invented Zero?
Easy.
No one.
LOL!
Get it?
NO 1.
Get it, now?
(crickets)
Oh.
Never mind.

(So sorry. It is the burden I bear...)
