Originally people called "cotton pickers" removed the seeds from raw cotton by hand, but this was slow and labor intensive. Eli Whitney invented a machine called the "Cotton Engine" (shortened in common usage to the "Cotton Gin") that removed the seeds from raw cotton quickly and easily. Unfortunately he made no money from this invention as it was so simple that anyone needing one simply made it himself. The Cotton Gin saved the south's Plantation slave based economy, until the Civil War.
