概要
The source provides an extensive academic overview of the ancient invention of the wheel, arguing for its multiple, independent origins around 4000 BCE in regions like Mesopotamia and Europe, citing the oldest physical evidence from the Ljubljana Marshes in Slovenia. It thoroughly details the complex paths of technological dissemination, including routes through Central Asia, the Eurasian Steppe, and the Silk Road, which facilitated the spread of the wheel to places like China. Furthermore, the text systematically analyzes the wheel's profound, multidimensional impact across various fields, including revolutionizing transportation and trade, transforming military strategy with the invention of the chariot, and serving as a critical religious symbol in Hinduism and Buddhism. Finally, the source emphasizes the wheel’s role as a fundamental driver of subsequent technological advancement, fostering progress in metallurgy, road construction, and the mechanical arts.
