I know it's not "ancient" and all, but I'm trying be original here!
My plan is to introduce an ethanol-burning internal combustion engines to industrial-revolution -era folks so we would be driving on alcohol instead of petrol and thus rid the world of oil dependency before the term is even coined!
Henry Ford tried to introduce an ethanol-engine once, but the folks in the demonstration ceremony drank all of the "fuel" and, being an absolutist and all, Henry declared that "humanity is not ready to use ethanol as fuel" and thus his cars burned petrol from that moment onwards.

How about bringing a fluorescent light bulb when they first invented the light bulb? It would of been alot more brighter and energy saving.

Nope.

Ah explosives versus nature, truly the greatest argument. More powerful than debating the existence of a god.
Still, my exploding goatherd surround you and blow you sky high.
Technology to harness alternative fuel sources (water, wind, sunlight) and just imagine the high tech stuff we'd have with an extra thousand years or so of developing that.
What you all seem to be missing is that if you introduce an invention to people of the past, whoever invented said item would not have and you wouldn't have it to bring.
Machine guns for every nation.
That would really stop their wild expansions with because of being totally defenseless against these.
People would settle down, stay at the cities and build social structure, work on the ways of human kind.
Instead of hundreds years of senseless power struggle and fear - progress.
