3 Inventions, Science and Technology:
Historical outline People have always tried to improve life, to make it easier by making different tools and machines. They have always needed to defend themselves, but also to gain advantage over others, so new and new weapons have been developed. And they have always been trying to learn more about the world and the universe. EU peníze školám CZ.1.07/1.5.00/

4 Pre-historic times Pre-historic people made simple tools and weapons to hunt animals and make things they needed to survive e.g. clothes.  However, even pre-historic people had a very good knowledge of nature, movements of stars, the moon and the sun. Was famous Stonehenge a calendar?  The most important invention of all time the wheel and axle dates back as early as 4 500 BC. EU peníze školám CZ.1.07/1.5.00/
