The Hittites were an ancient civilization that existed from around the 18th to the 12th century BCE. They are credited with several important inventions such as the chariot, which revolutionized warfare and transportation, and the use of iron in weaponry and tools. The Hittites also developed a sophisticated legal system and are known for their extensive use of cuneiform writing.
In many ways. For example, the Sumerians who lived in modern day Iraq around the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, created writing around 3500 BCE. They also created a system of measuring space - 360 degrees, and time - 60 minutes = an hour. So whenever you read something or check the time, you are using ancient Sumerian inventions.
A:3500 BCE more or less marks the beginning of the Bronze Age. Copper was being created, and then bronze. This in turn led to the creation of bronze tools and weapons.
Greatest InventionsThe greatest inventions are: The plow, about 5500 BCE in Mesopotamia.Writing, about 4000 BCE in Mesopotamia.The wheel, about 3500 BCE by Sumerians or proto-Aryans.Money, about 3000 BCE by Sumerians.Plumbing and sanitation, about 2600 BCE in the Indus Valley.The movable-type printing press, about 1436 CE by Johannes Gutenburg.Antibiotics, by Louis Pasteur, Paul Ehrlich, Robert Koch, John Tyndall and others.

The earliest writing of which we have examples is cuneiform. The Kish tablet, composed of proto-cuneiform, has been dated to about 3500 BCE,
Mesopotamians.
Down and dirty...the Middle East sometime around 3500 BCE. It's mentioned in the Bible in the Old Testament.
Remembering that there was no year zero, 3500 years before 2014AD would have been 1487BC.
3500 BCE
Only the Minoan Culture, from Greece's Bronze Age, dates as far back as that 3500 BCE.
The Sumerians invented the plow wheel in approximately 3500 BCE and bronze writing in about 4000 BCE. The Sumerians were the first to use bronze writing and not only invented the plow wheel but the plow as well.
