Before invention of wheel, early man has to walk on foot. They would move to walking distance areas only. They generally used tamed animals for riding to covering longer distances with very less goods. They lived in small groups in different places. Before invention of wheel, these small groups would remain isolated from other groups. Later they started to carry their burden on flat pieces of wood. 


One day one of them noticed a stone rolling down the hill. It stroked an idea in his mind. He thought a rounded shaped object can roll more easily on earth surface thus it was the first time when an idea of wheel came in existence. First of all, he tried to make a stone wheel. He tried to chip the big stone in a round shape for making wheel. But making hole in stone to use is as a wheel was a tough job. Later he got idea to use wide stem of the trees as a wheel and got succeeded. This was a revolution in early man life. Now he could easily make wheels with holes inside for joining the two. Later he made cart that could be carried by a bullock. Thus invention of wheel had changed the early man life, entirely. 

Conclusion:

It is well said that "the necessity is the mother of invention". The time and basic necessity taught early humans to find and invent new things. This made their brain more developed and matured. Now, instead of wandering alone he was living with his family in a small community. They were doing farming, taming animals, using fire for cooking food and making tools, riding on wheels carts and moving towards a civilized society, hand in hand.
