The Antikythera Mechanism: The World's First Computer The Antikythera Mechanism is considered the world's first analog computer. Discovered in 1901 in a shipwreck off the Greek island of Antikythera, this ancient device dates back to 150-100 BC and was used for astronomical calculations. What Did It Do? This complex mechanism could: - Predict the movements of the Sun, Moon, and possibly planets. - Calculate solar and lunar eclipses. - Determine the dates of ancient Greek Olympic Games and other events. Why Is It Unique? - It contained precise bronze gears, showcasing advanced Greek engineering. - Such technology did not reappear until 1,500 years later, with medieval clockwork. - It proves that ancient Greeks had incredible knowledge of astronomy and mechanics. Today, the Antikythera Mechanism is housed in the National Archaeological Museum of Athens, while modern research continues to reveal its secrets.
