Baskets of stones and large sacks filled with sand and wooden logs filled with lead were used by the ancient Greeks. Metal anchors were not introduced until much later because the material was considered too precious for moorings. The earliest anchors can be traced back to the Bronze Age and cork was the first material used for life preservers. The familiar red and white Kisby ring came into use in the 1800's and is named for its inventor, Thomas Kisbee who was a British naval officer.
