Did man create time, or did man only create a scale, or formula, by which time is measured?

Obviously as an evolutionist you would have to believe that most other species existed before man did, and obviously animals, and even abiotic factors like the weather, undergo certain cycles that are related to time.

Because if the Earth always spun around its axis, obviously the sun always came up and went down in periodic segments, just because humans weren't there to chart and classify these segments as "time" doesn't mean it didn't exist.
