Well, let's see - there's the WHEEL - that's a pretty big one.
How about sewer systems (Rome had the first), also Aqueducts (water ways), and paved roads (both Roman).
Math - that's Greek first, but several other civilizations had their own versions.
Astronomy - I believe that was Greek.
Paper - Egyptians invented paper from papyrus.
And another biggie - Fire!
