The oldest wheel in the UK excavated, revealing secrets 3,000 years ago
An ancient British wheel has just been unearthed at the British Bronze Age site, revealing the secrets of the ancient technology of ancient people 3000 years ago.
The research team at the Bronze Age described this oldest British wheel as the biggest discovery of the decade.
The oldest British wooden wheel found is believed to date 3000 years ago.
This 3,000-year-old wooden wheel shows, the ancient British found creative ways to move before thinking of ways to use boat transport across the river.
The wheel is preserved very carefully and still quite intact, with a diameter of about 1m.
Speaking to Cambridge University, Duncan Wilson, director of the British Ancient Studies Program, said: "This ancient wooden wheel is the oldest relic found in England."
The existence of this wheel extends our understanding of the development of the Bronze Age and the life of the ancient people at that time. This is very helpful for scientists to learn about the ancient people during the period of 3,000 years ago.
