Which mathematician invented the formula for perimeter?

Although some have said Archimedes, my opinion is that the formulas for area and perimeter of a rectangle were well known before his time (300BC).

Archimedes did discover more difficult formulas, such as perimeter and area of a circle, and volume of a sphere and a cone.
