Why did people start making technology

People started making technology because the wanted to gain better techniques and tools that help them in need. One of the first most popular technologies is the creation of the wheel. Wheels helped people move things around by making wagons and carts. The first wheel was made in the 4th millennium BC. We still use wheels today. Mostly for transportation purposes. 

When someone invents something, it gives other people ideas. which  results in other people trying to build off of the original idea and making it more advanced.
