It was founded in 1500-500 BCE and this era of Hinduism is knwon as historic Vedic Hindu religion, while morden Hinduism started from 1700-1100BCE.

Hinduism was founded by an institution of Seven Sages called Saptarishis. Just as we have Pope for Christianity today, Hinduism, from the beginning, had an institution of seven sages who were the patriarchs of the Vedic religion. They very strictly guarded the Vedic body of knowledge, and the copy of the Vedas available to them was considered to be the final copy. They were considered as God's manifestation on earth, and their word was the final authority in religious matters. Aside from that though we have Hindu artifacts dating back to about 28,500 b.c.e. so it was "founded" at least then, but probably earlier.

Hinduism was never invented. It came from people askeing questions about the earth and the universe a long time ago. We have artifacts of Hindu origin that date to about 28,500 b.c.e so it started at least then, but probably earlier.
