The most important product ever invented

I would take your axel and lose the 'l', the axe has to be up there for it's value and importance as a tool used in creating shelter, hunting for food, preparing food, making clothing from the animals hunted for food, a means of creating other tools, for both defence and attack or protection. It's a hugely versatile invention and as a means of bartering, object of status, the list goes on, it's unparalleled. Without the axe, even in its most primitive form, you won't have a wheel or an axel and gathering fuel for fire is a much harder task
