How early man invented the wheel?
The wheel is the most important invention of all time. Based on Mesopotamia diagrams on clay tablets the first use of the wheel was in chariots in 3200 BC. This was the first use for transportation and before that it had been used as a potter's wheel. A wheel with spokes first appeared on Egyptian chariots around 2000 BC and seem to have developed in Europe by 1400 BC. There is evidence that the wheel didn't develop among native people anywhere in the Western Hemisphere until after contact with Europeans. The wheel changed little until the 19th century and the coming of the Industrial Revolution where it became the central component of the new technology.
