A Timeline of historic inventions and their Impact on Society

Throughout history, inventions have changed the way we live – from fire to the wheel, airplanes to the internet. In this blog post, we’ll take a look at some of the most notable inventions that have had a huge impact on our lives over time.

The Wheel (3500 BCE): The invention of the wheel is one of mankind’s earliest known inventions and its use has been documented since 3500 BCE. It is probably one of the most influential inventions in human history as it opened up transportation and trade between different parts of the world. We now rely on wheels for a variety of uses such as cars, bicycles, trains, ships and countless other modes of transport.

The Printing Press (1450 CE): The printing press was invented by Johannes Gutenberg in 1450 CE in Germany. This invention made it possible to mass-produce books and pamphlets quickly and affordably, leading to an explosion in knowledge sharing across Europe and beyond. This was incredibly important as it allowed people to easily access information that they would not normally have access to before this invention.

The Telephone (1876): The telephone was first patented in 1876 by Alexander Graham Bell but wasn’t truly popularized until after World War II when it became more widely available. The telephone revolutionized how people communicated with each other – no longer did you need to be face-to-face with someone to communicate; now you could talk over long distances without ever having met them before! This opened up possibilities for collaboration between people all over the world who may never have otherwise been able to communicate with each other.

Throughout history, inventors have changed the world with their ideas and innovations. From fire to the wheel, airplanes to computers – these inventions continue to shape our lives today. As new technologies emerge every day, we can only imagine what new inventions will come next and how they will shape our future!
