Printing press. Developed in the late 1400's.
The flying buttress was used to support the outside of Gothic cathedrals long before the Renaissance.
The lever has been used for millennia. The ancient Greek Mathematician, Archimedes, said: "Give me a lever long enough, and a support for it, and I can move the world."
Fresco painting--was that an invention? More like a development. True, it was popular in the Renaissance. But fresco painting was done as early as 1500 BC.

It has to be the printing press because lets face it look at all the information we can get a hold of today for the common man especially the informational superhighway that all began for the common man to become learned as well as for the priveleged and it all began with Guttenburg's printing press in 1460

thought it was the printing press in Germany that allowed for the movement of thought, religous thought that changed the face of Europe as it started the reformation of the church.
