Period

Is there anything of unappreciated significance that is used more than I ? I've got to be the "where's waldo" of precocious punctuation! piled atop baby j's and baby i's balanced under interrogatory swirls ? and exclamatory lines ! and others of my kind : ; ! Also, laid down with more of the same ... Accountants and mathematicians have rued my misplacement, yet though I'm remarkably plain, the simple truth is, when I say it's done, it's done......PERIOD!

The period was a great invention, No doubt about it. I wonder when the first period was used? Have a great day.
