Wheel History, Invention of the Wheel - first wheels made of

I'm sure people must already have use wheels 1000 years ago, or so before the first real subber wheel made.

Who really is the inventor of the first rubber wheel anyway?

And what do you think the first wheel made of?
I would say the first wheel made of stone, invented or made by cavemen.

The wheel probably originated in ancient Sumer (modern Iraq) in the 5th millennium BCE and actually the early wheels were simple wooden disks with a hole for the axle may be bacause of structure of wood and they were not having enough tools to make it. Later with time they worked upon it and new types of wheels emerged. The spoked wheel was invented more recently, and allowed the construction of lighter and swifter vehicles.
