  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?
