He made a clock which struck on the hour - not exactly a cuckoo clock. Furthermore, clocks in which mechanical birds announced the hour had been invented about two thousand years previously so Banneker can hardly have been said to have invented one!
Benjamin Banneker did not invent the cuckoo clock; this invention is typically attributed to German clockmakers in the 18th century. Banneker was known for his work as a mathematician, astronomer, and inventor, particularly in the field of clocks, where he created a striking wooden clock that kept accurate time. His innovations were largely inspired by his interest in nature and the mechanics of timekeeping, but there is no direct connection between him and the cuckoo clock specifically.

No, Benjamin Banneker did not invent the first clock. He was known for his work as a mathematician, astronomer, and surveyor. Banneker is famously known for his wooden clock that he built in the 18th century.

He didn't invent it, but improved on it. Clocks have been in use for thousands of years. The Chinese had a water clock and by the 1300's in Europe there were candles to measure time. The ancient Greeks and Egyptians had clocks as well.
The person who created the first punch clock is Benjamin Banneker. Benjamin Banneker was an African American scientist who changed the world with his invention.
I'm positive that he accomplished many things and one of them are that Benjamin Banneker made the first American clock.
