Much respect for the people of Iraq, who put in a ridiculous amount of effort to deny the BIble.

I like hi ow they know where the wheel was invented when nobody really does. And it was probably invented multiple times independently of each other. But nobody knows since it was so long ago.
Depends on your definition of "wheel". For example, any ancient perfectly round pottery was made using a pottery wheel (primitive or not). Otherwise, how would you do it?
That's how we know the ancient Sumerians were using pottery wheels as early as 3250 BCE (because we found perfectly round pottery that's that old):
