🤯 The World’s First Computer… Built Over 2,000 Years Ago?
In 1901, sponge divers exploring a shipwreck near the Greek island of Antikythera discovered a strange lump of corroded bronze.
At first, it looked like nothing more than a broken artifact.
But after careful examination, researchers uncovered something extraordinary—a complex device containing more than 30 precision-cut bronze gears.
Known today as the Antikythera Mechanism, it could predict eclipses, track the movements of the Sun, Moon, and planets, and even calculate astronomical cycles.
Many historians describe it as the world’s first known analog computer.
