The Antikythera mechanism, is an ancient mechanical calculator (also described as the first known mechanical computer) designed to calculate astronomical positions. It was recovered in 190001 from the Antikythera wreck, but its complexity and significance were not understood until decades later. It is now thought to have been built about 150100 BC. Technological artifacts of similar complexity did not reappear until the 14th century, when mechanical astronomical clocks appeared in Europe.

    Yes yes this seem the common knowledge, just know that the current research points to the ideas behind democracy coming from Africa....The wonder of history is that it's hardly ever cast in stone.

    ancients were technically more advanced than we do today based on resource available then and their level of achievement.

    However the scientists are pretty sure it is ancient.And the level of civilization suggests that it could be easily possible.

    Unlike your ancestors that were digging in the mud for worms and did not have toilets there were civilizations that did miracles.

    Have a nice day.
