No, Mexico did not invent the piñata, it was invented in China and discovered by Marco Polo, from there it traveled to Europe and brought to the New world by the Spaniards who use it as a form to popularize Christianity. It was only use during Christmas time in events called "posadas," they were filled with food and had the form of a seven pike star, each of this pikes represented one of the seven deadly sins, and by breaking them you were overcoming them. Now they have mostly lost their meaning and are made in the form of different characters.
Also if you are interested "Burritos" those disgusting things that people eat were not invented in Mexico either, they were made in California like 50 years ago, and they are called "burritos" because their suppose to resemble a donkey's penis. "Chimichanga" was also invented in California and "Salsa Tabasco" in Florida.
