We can't even imagine, but there was a time _____ when the wheel didn't exist yet, and performing simple tasks, such as moving objects, was a very difficult job. Nobody knows who or when exactly the wheel appeared, but it is considered the machine invented by the human being that made the most transformations possible in the world!
Researchers believe that this artifact has nearly six millennia of history, as it was found by first time, made on a clay slab in the ruins of the ancient region of Mesopotamia, where today is the Iraq. Some archaeologists believe that the wheel may be even older, as they found on a vase drawings similar to a means of transport with wheels, which would have been made in 4,000 BC. Ç.
