Well this certainly lives up to the discussion thread title.

Sorry, this is not the ignorant replies thread.

What about the wheel (Mesopotamians)

the wheel was invented on the Eurasian steppe.

What about geometry?

Indo-Europeans (including Greeks) evolved on the Eurasian steppe and then spread out.

Or perhaps something fairly important called numbers.

See above point.
