Answer one:
The wheel was thought to be invented by the Mesopotamians with a log because they realized they could take a log and place it under heavy objects and the logs would roll.
Answer Two:
The oldest wheel was found 3000 BC in Holland before the early Mesopotamian civilizations. This was a spoked wheel so the history goes back much further. The current theory is it was invented in Ukraine, Balkans and southern Urals/ Central Asia. People who had followed herds annually using sleighs had greater difficulty as the climate warmed. Ice was replaced by grassland. By adding rollers to the sleigh the motion was enhanced.
We know historically that Mesopotamia was under constant threat of invasion from the Caucuses and Balkans were nomads and early shifting agriculturists lived. The wheel and its enhancements came from the north with waves of ruling elites. The Hittites being the last example who conquered the so called civilised world in one generation. By rocks, they carved them into squares and found it was harder to move so they rounded the tips it got stuck on slowly. moving it into the wheel. Before that they would put it on wood, kind of like skis. We got many ideas from them.

Who invented the wheel chair?
It is uncertain as to what can be considered the first wheelchair, or who invented it. The first known dedicated wheelchair (invented in 1595 and called an invalids chair) was made for Phillip II of Spain by an unknown inventor. In 1655, Stephen Farfler, a paraplegic watchmaker, built a self-propelling chair on a three wheel chassis.In 1783, John Dawson of Bath, England, invented a wheelchair named after the town of Bath. Dawson designed a chair with two large wheels and one small one. The Bath wheelchair outsold all other wheelchairs throughout the early part of the 19th century.However, the Bath wheelchair was not that comfortable and during the last half of the 19th century many improvements were made to wheelchairs. An 1869 patent for a wheelchair showed the first model with rear push wheels and small front casters. Between, 1867 to 1875, inventors added new hollow rubber wheels similar to those used on bicycles on metal rims. In 1881, the pushrims for added self-propulsion were invented.
