Whereas Antonio Meucci, the great Italian inventor, had a career that was both extraordinary and tragic; (Engrossed as Agreed to or Passed by House)[H.RES.269.EH]

Part of the story....
Up to 1874 Meucci had only the money to renew his caveat while looking for funding for a true patent. After waiting two years without receiving an answer, Meucci went to Grant and asked him to give back his documents, but Grant answered he had lost them.

So I supposed that as I always said... The story is written by whom has the money to do it!

but Did you know it?

The conspiracy theory still lingers after all these years. And so let me have your take on it.

Many archeologists think (it's a hypothesis, like mine here) that the domestication of horses goes far back to the 4th millenium BC. That's mainly because they have found wheels of broken chariots dated from that time.

Now, I know that may sound a bit strange, but it's totally serious. These archeologists are paid with big time money.

Anyways, Inuits still use or to drive their sleighs, right? So why would the "first" chariots have been dragged by horses 4 millenium BC, if much less docile were still used to drag peasant chariots during the roman empire's apogea?

And horses, to my knowledge, were never common in Eastern Asia (read: PIEs came from the Southeast, not Southwest).
Boars and wolves were common in Asia though.

Could the pigs and the wolves have pulled these chariots instead of horses?

Can someone reconcile these statements for me?

1. From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bronze
"With the exception of steel, bronze is superior to iron in nearly every application."

2. From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-age_system
[People switched from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age because] "no one would have wanted to use bronze tools if there had been iron ones around instead."



Maybe the second statement should refer to steel instead of (pure) iron. Did the Iron Age start with the use of pure iron, or did it start with steel? If it started with pure iron, then how was it an advantage over bronze? And if it started with steel, then shouldn't it be called the Steel Age instead of the Iron Age?
