Detailed explanation-1: -The invention of the wheel made transport faster and easier for humans, and also brought about a major change in the way of living of Primitive humans. They could also save a lot of travel time and dedicate that time towards other useful activities.
Detailed explanation-2: -THE WHEEL is often described as the most important invention of all time – it had a fundamental impact on transport and later on agriculture and industry. The wheel-and-axle combination was invented around 4500 BC and was probably first used for a potter’s wheel.
Detailed explanation-3: -The need for greater speed led to the invention of spoked wheels around 2000 BCE, by the Egyptians. Iron rims were also added for greater strength in Celtic chariots. Wooden, spoked wheels with iron rims were the norm for many centuries. There was no major change in spoked wheels until 1802.
