The site I copied it from did not say - I just pasted a piece from it. Got a google on the "invention of the wheel" and it came through. If pottery wheel, then probably the Celts or Mycenaeans, if chariot wheel - Mycenaeans. The trouble with this guess is that the Mycenaeans were too close to ME to be sure of "independent discovery".
