    The pyramids were built to provide a launch point for hang gliders since Egypt is mostly desert. I wonder how to find the web site for the Cairo museum ?      Nat

      I think the Chinese invented kites and rockets. The Greeks...two flying men, at least in legend. Also the spear and arrow, as in bow and arrow (not Wolfgang's model).  The Romans....not sure. Possibly great balls of fire launched by catapult. Egyptians...I'd put it a tie with an Indonesian tribe for the poisoned dart. Egyptians also had a hand in the flying carpet along with the Mesopotamian Arabs. 

      Geez, Egyptians were real early team builders, eh?
