The correct answer is A. The plow.

A plow is a tillage tool used in agriculture to open furrows in the land before cultivating. The use of this tool has been documented back to the 4th millennium BC in Mesopotamia during the period of the most ancient civilization of the world: the Sumerians. At that time, the plow was first used directly by farmers and, later, animals like bulls and oxen were forced to execute this tool.

The Sumerians were the first people of Mesopotamia who use a spoken language.

Sumerian is the oldest language in the world. It was spoken in Mesopotamia in the Middle East. Sumerian was used from the year -4000 to -3000 and was replaced by the Akkadian. Now Mesopotamia is a territory of Iraq, and this language no longer exists.

Further explanation

Sumerian was a cuneiform language, which means it used alphabets different from ours. It was written on clay tablets with a piece of pointed reed called Calame. The alphabet of this ancient writing contained more than a hundred signs that did not represent letters, but whole sounds and syllables.

There is no other language family as Sumerian. It was so complicated. The majority of the world's languages ​​belong to a family, they often have several variants or spoken in different countries, but the Sumerian remained unique. It is a rare case.

The discovery of the Sumerian and its understanding were made very late, unlike the Egyptian hieroglyphs which were studied earlier. In 1847, the specialists managed to decipher all the signs of Sumerian after many attempts throughout the 19th century.
