Invention of Wheel and Plough

The invention of the wheel and plough during the Neolithic period marked a significant advancement in human civilization. The wheel, appearing around 3500 BCE, revolutionized transportation and trade, making it easier to move goods and people. The plough, developed shortly after, transformed agriculture by allowing farmers to till soil more efficiently, promoting larger harvests. These innovations enabled communities to expand, leading to the growth of villages and trade networks, fostering social and economic development. Together, the wheel and plough played crucial roles in shaping sedentary agricultural societies, laying the foundation for future civilizations.
