You invent the wheel and make a bunch of carts and wheelbarrows. Soon enough, people are carrying each other in carts! The more well off people stop going anywhere on foot, they have servants to carry them on carts! The women particularly think a guy is too poor to have kids with if he doesn't have carts and servants!

You learn to make planks with bone saws and invent chests and crates!

You also invent sturdy barrels and ladders, both of which could have military applications!

You also make rowboats that are more than dugout tree trunks. Currently you waterproof your boats with animal fat.

You can now make a vast sortment of simple tools for woodworking. They're mostly polished stone in many shapes and forms with wooden handles for ease of use.

Your people feel particularly inventive as of late! Maybe you want to research more stuff.

The death cultists say that now our population is larger, they need to sacrifice more people to appease Death!
