Even the Dung Beatle perfected the wheel.
Sticks are round and logs roll.
Doesn’t take much of a leap of imagination to invent the wheel.
Just need a reason...to haul heavy stuff more quickly... but then you hit rocks, tussocks of grass, brambles and ground clutter... aha, trail/road grading, government jobs because somebody needs to lean on shovels, they won’t stand up by themselves.
Comes down to having indigenous draft animals or coolies to haul our stuff..
wheels, the joy and bane of modern life.
Life without a Trabant, grim and joyless.
