Beschreibung:

Barbed wire was invented in 1874 by Joseph Glidden, a farmer from Illinois, who designed it as a cost-effective and efficient way to restrain livestock. This invention revolutionized agriculture on the American frontier, making it possible to fence vast areas of land quickly and cheaply, which significantly impacted the open range system of the West and intensified conflicts over land rights.
