1. Alcohol predates major mechanical inventions like the wheel
   Archaeological estimates suggest the wheel emerged around 3500 BCE, but evidence of intentional alcohol production appears even earlier. Early humans were fermenting naturally occurring sugars long before complex engineering tools existed.

2. Early alcohol use was likely tied to ritual and social bonding
   Traces of ancient fermented beverages—such as early beer found in burial contexts in China—suggest alcohol wasn’t just recreational. It was likely used in ceremonies, feasts, and communal rituals, strengthening social cohesion in early societies.

3. Fermentation is simpler than engineering a wheel
   Alcohol can be produced through natural fermentation of fruit, honey, or grains without advanced tools—something early humans could discover accidentally and refine. In contrast, building a wheel required precision shaping, axles, and a deeper understanding of mechanics, making it a later technological leap.
