The word "mustache" is ultimately derived from the Greek word "mullon" which means lip. This makes sense because a mustache is hair above the upper lip. With the advent of shaving, it was possible to alter facial hair growth. It wasn't really "invented" in the sense that there was something new. It was an invention of omission.

Well, the moustache could hardly be invented - as it is just facial hair. Shaving with sharp rocks, etc. has been possible throughout human history, but the first sign of someone with just a moustache (and not a beard) is a drawing of a Scythian horseman on a felt artifact, from 300 years BC. He had a wonsal style moustache.
