In relatively recent discoveries, as time goes, We have uncovered evidence that that the wheel was used millennia ago, perhaps millions of years, having found wheels encased in ancient stone (granite and coal) deposits from earlier ages. A much larger question begs for study of the Antikytherian Mechanism discovered among shipwrecks in Ancient Grecian waters. This device employed not only complex gearing ( essential spoked wheels and axels), but implies in its nature a understanding of time (and its passage) and it's relation to a detailed and accurate knowledge of the cosmos and the movement of celestial bodies.

The Egyptians invented the spoked wheel, but the hyksos invented the chariot.
Actually, the people of Ur in Mesopotamia invented the wheel. It's a common mistake.
