The Egyptian pyramids were built by aliens. Everyone knows this.
  • None of them knew they were robots.

All I'm saying is that if you were going to make a stone wheel like they show on cartoons it would be easier to make a round one

Also putting it in a car is not the only way to use a wheel

it's only a wheel if it has a stationary axle. rolling something on logs doesn't count. the egyptian pyramids were built without wheels

shortbread biscuits are 'made' circular by rolling the dough into a cylinder. a drawing of a circle in coal also isn't a wheel.
also i don't trust your wheel definition

It isn't but you could plain a rock and draw a circle on it and remove the stone outside the circle so it becomes a wheel

Also there is no such thing as prehistory that's an obsolete concept from the 19th century

a wheel isn't just a circle that can roll. a log isn't a wheel.

it's much more complicated to work in stone than wood. stone cleaves horribly and the first wheels wouldn't have been made of flint.

a wheel isn't just a circle that can roll. a log isn't a wheel.

how to make a wheel:
find cylindrical tree at the top of a tall hill
roll it down
repeat until it's round
chop it into slices
put a stick through the middle

All you have to do is find a suitable kind of stone and bang it with other rocks until the shape is good enough, they did that in a documentary I don't remember the name while trying to make stone balls

Rolling it down won't make it round you'd have to sculpt it with something

that's not how the first wheels were made at all. need I remind you (again) that stone masonry existed in most cultures long before the first wheel?

ahaha the first wheel was definitely chiseled out of stone. working in stone did come long before working in wood after all, since it's so much easier
