10 Inventions That Changed the World

[Gospodine]

how do they really know when the wheel for example was invented?

Because they didn't graduate from the Bosnian School of Ancient Alien Pyramidology.

you kidding? you dont think humans had large goods,or things to move from places,

Before the Neolithic Farming Revolution, the entirety of humanity lived in hunter-gatherer societies where material possessions were by necessity scarce.

it 100% existed before

Fashioning wood into the shape of a wheel and the required tool-making technology and by extension the auxiliary division of labour/stratification of social groups needed for that is not really possible several thousand years before the 3rd millennium BC when humans lived from hand-to-mouth and were busying themselves trying not to freeze to death.

Not that much easier, that's why the wheel wasn't invented until hundreds of people banded together and craftsmen came into existence. More efficient farming methods meant less people needed to work so some people became craftsmen and essentially inventors. They found more efficient ways of doing various jobs.

then this means you have never lived in a village or seen what kind of things people usually do


you have no knowledge and speak out of your ass just for the sake of it,you "have" to be right,i am ignoring you

The wheel was probably only a natural progress.

Before the wheel, we all know people were doing rolly-pollies & pencil rolls down hills. They kicked stones about.

That's not a village. Would you call a group of people camping in the forest a village?

Go back to school.

Historians try their hardest to come up with a date using what they have found. Again, there is no reason to question what there is no evidence for. There is no evidence of the wheel being invented before 3500 BC. Until there is evidence, the wheel was invented in c.3500 BC

"Radiocarbon dating, performed in the VERA laboratory (Vienna Environmental Research Accelerator) in Vienna, showed that it is 5,250 ± 100 years old, which makes it the oldest wooden wheel discovered by archeologists in the world."
