Everybody keeps saying "electricity" and forgetting one major, "Penicillin". If this antibiotic wasn't innovated to treat varieties of bacteria, the smallest bacteria would have KO the population.
Also, the best is FIRE. This bad boy is still and will remain the best gift to mortal. We have to thank the cave men btw.

Ps: “Invention“ can be defined as the creation of a product or introduction of a process for the first time. “Innovation,” on the other hand, occurs if someone improves on or makes a significant contribution to an existing product, process or service.
fire or how to produce it willy-nilly

Great points have been made. I'd have said electricity and the internet too before I read other comments. The people that mentioned writing have a very valid point. Agricultural tools go without saying.
The major thing I'm learning from this thread is how humanity has seriously evolved!! Trying to imagine life without electricity, money,a market to get items, schools,Chisus!!!!

It's electricity,almost every other great human innovation or invention rely on it.
Just imagine a total global electricity blackout for just 24hours,the chaos it'll bring!
I think I'll give telecommunication (internet inclusive) the second spot!tongue
I never knew how important electricity is until I watch d movie revolution. Entire nations, government and human life is 100% dependent on electricity.

FIRE is the best and will remain so. Man can survive without elect but can't without fire.

if fire wasn't invented.. the invention of electricity wouldn't it help us do what should be done with fire?

If fire wasn't innovated there won't be an idea that electricity can be generated from heat.
Fire wasn't invented btw.

I think it's a Mirror. Prior to the invention of the Mirror, humans couldn't know how exactly they looked like. They could see themselves partially through mediums like water, polished metal stones etc. Isn't it astonishing we can now see our ears? Are we supposed to?
I think, the existence water has proved it wrong.

Don't know about the two but the important invention of Mankind is MONEY.



Money revolutionised the very essence of human endeavour. It is at the heart of every other invention.

With its major qualities of store of value, unit of account and medium of exchange, it moved man from a subsistent hunter-gatherer to every other activity that over time gave rise to other key inventions like internet, electricity etc.
In my own opinion, money is not an invention. It arises as a result of neccessity. If we said, 'money is an invention, then trade by barter is an invention.'
