Best Answer

Actually the wheel was discovered first. When early men had seen them, they would have understand that it made transferring of load easier as, we all know that rolling friction is smaller than sliding friction. So, after that, they had made improvement in the 'WHEEL'. and then locomotives came into being.

When is the wheel discovered?

The wheel was invented, not discovered. It may have been invented independently in different places. The invention happened so long ago that no one knows who invented it or when. Up till now, it is still a mystery as to who invented the wheel and when the wheel was invented. According to archaeologists, it was probably invented in around 8,000 B.C. in Asia. It was actually surprisingly late. For instance the Egyptians built the pyramids without wheels or metal tools (except copper, a very soft metal). It was probably developed in either the Middle East or central Europe about 4000BC, just before the beginning of the Bronze Age.
