Oil was first found by Indian's, they found it on the tops of pond's, they called it "rock oi". They used it for medicine, which could cure common sicknesses. Soon people were drilling in to the ground to find this a amazing oil witch could be used for steam engines ,oil lamps, and much much more, this went on for two hundred years. And as we know now it is used to make gasoline for your car.
