The telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876. 

Before the telephone the only other means of communication was the telegraph and letters. On March 7, 1876, Bell was granted his telephone patent. A few days later, he made the first-ever telephone call to Watson, allegedly uttering the now-famous phrase, “Mr. Watson, come here. I want you.” 

By 1877, the Bell Telephone Company, which today is known as AT&T, was created. In 1915, Bell made the first transcontinental phone call to Watson from New York to San Francisco.  

The telephone has made the communication much quicker and cheaper. Within a couple of seconds we can talk to our friends, family or anyone anywhere in the world.

The operative part of the wheel is the edge of the disc, which is covered by different kinds of materials or endings in order to adapt it to the corresponding use.
 The wheel was invented in Mesopotamia in the year 3500 B.C., the Bronze Age. The heaviest loads were transported by sleighs before the wheel was invented. Firstly it was made of stone, then of wood, and finally made of spokes and a pneumatic tire.
 Before it was invented, so many important things were invented, such as farming, writing,  sailing, and pottery, among others. 

For humans, the wheel was a great invent as without it we couldn’t carry big loads of things and people. The wheel is often described as the most important invention of all time since it has made transportation easier.
