    Philosophy and theology

    The prime mover, primum movens, an unmoved mover in the philosophy of Aristotle, later used by Saint Thomas Aquinas in his cosmological arguments, as a "first cause" of existence

    Social Science Theory

    A hypothetical person that has a significant impact on society and history due to the exercise of their free will, unfettered by external psychological influences or social forces; also the name of the theory that affirms the existence and possibility of such people.

    Regarding socio-political complexity, the term Prime Mover describes any influence upon a social group that leads to a higher degree of societal complexity.

    Railways

    Prime mover (locomotive), a component of a locomotive

    Haulage

    Tractor unit or towing engine, a vehicle that provides the motive power to haul a load, as in:
    Semi-trailer truck in Australian English
    Ballast tractor, a heavy haulage road vehicle designed to pull or push heavy or exceptionally large loads
    Artillery tractor, a military vehicle hauling an artillery piece
    Steam tractor, a vehicle powered by a steam engine which is used for pulling
    Tractor, a vehicle specifically designed to deliver a high tractive effort (or torque) at slow speeds
    Maybe you look for the obvious definition I'm using instead of trying to devolve this into a semantics war
