A 2000-year-old computer was found from the depths of the ocean; scientists were also stunned

International News: In ancient times, huge ships were used to transport treasure from one country to another. Sometimes very precious items were also kept in these ships. Recently scientists have found a very unique object in the depths of the sea, which is very important for both history and science.

The Antikythera ship and its discovery

In 1900, Captain Dimitrios Kondos and his team discovered the remains of a ship that had sunk near the Greek island of Symi. The ship is believed to be from the first century BC and was named 'Antikythera.' Many interesting and rare objects were found from this ship, the most famous of which is the Antikythera Mechanism.

Antikythera: World’s First Analog Computer

The Antikythera Mechanism is about 2000 years old and is considered to be the first analog computer in human history. This device was used to predict eclipses, moon phases, and the movement of planets. The existence of such a complex and technical device in that era was a surprise for scientists.

Secrets of a unique discovery

It is also surprising that along with this ship, remains of other ships have been found, which probably sank at the same time. Among those remains, there was also a wooden device, whose design was completely different from any device of 1970. This shows that at that time many ships must have sunk together in the sea or the sea traffic in that area was very busy.

Important discoveries for science and history

This discovery has given a new direction to the world of archaeology and science. This technical object found in the deep waters of the sea gives new dimensions to the technical understanding of human civilization. It tells us how technologically advanced our ancestors were and how they made such complex tools despite their difficulties.
