Early humans left Africa (so they think now) 60K to 90K years ago. They became Europeans, Asians, Middle-Easterners, Australians, Americans. This after traveling thousands of miles away from Africa and adapting to new climates, new lands, new waters.

Africans, staying in place for those thousands of years, never invented the wheel. When European explorers went to the interior of Africa, they found no wheels, and little to no advancement beyond the Stone Age.

Just look at the inner cities that are Democrat Run, No one is inventing anything, they are only destroying things and each other. Nothing has changed with savage behavior.

No roads in Africa back then.
That's why Ram mentioned the Bronco 4x4 OFF ROAD vehicle! Tarzan introduced the first "swing Vine" rapid transit above ground inter tree travel service @ a whopping 67 trees per hour on the inter tribe system! Unfortunately the vine system could only accommodate one person per swing & it was eventually replaced with the dual seat catapult system(560 fps!). Landings could prove to be a challenge @ times but the system was fassst!

Good question. But let's also understand that even today, a lot happens in Africa where they still do not use the wheel. For instance they use the head to carry objects.
 
Bing AI researched "Did Africans never invent or use the wheel?"

Contrary to popular belief, the wheel was indeed used in Africa to various extents throughout history1. While it may have been common for Africans to manually carry their goods or use pack animals to transport economic goods, there was broad awareness, knowledge, and use of wheeled transports (e.g., carts, carriages, chariots, wagons) in Africa1. However, the environment in some parts of tropical Africa, as well as alternative forms of travel and transport, such as via canoe and beasts of burden/riding animals (e.g., donkeys, horses, camels), may have resulted in decreased use of animal-drawn wheeled transport in Africa1.

The wheel was also given other technical applications in Africa, such as a water wheel and a potter’s wheel1. For instance, the potter’s wheel was introduced into ancient Nubia by ancient Egypt1.

In North Africa, in the 5th century BCE, Herodotus reported the use of chariots by Garamantes in the Saharan region1. Rock art engravings of ox-drawn wagons and horse-driven chariots can be found in Algeria, Libya, southern Morocco, Mauritania, and Niger1.

So yes, Africans did use the wheel. However, it’s important to note that very few places/peoples on earth actually “invented” the wheel2. The wheel is thought to have been invented around 3500 BC by a Homo sapiens living in Mesopotamia3, and this technology then had to spread throughout the entirety of continental Eurasia, and much of Africa2.

Why?

Necessity is the mother of invention. I guess they didn't need a dune buggy back then.
 
Scientists used to say they tried rolling large round logs up steep hills but then they stopped..
