Archaeologists React to Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

$The Antikythera Mechanism: The 1st Analogue Computer from Ancient Greece Was the Antikythera Mechanism really used for time travel? Or was it actually the first Analogue Computer... In Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, they embark on a quest for the missing pieces of the Antikythera Mechanism. They also say it was built by Archimedes during the time of the Battle of Syracuse around 212 BCE, and that it has powers to travel through time. Reality? I think not! This is the real story of the Antikythera Mechanism. The first underwater archaeological investigation, the oldest known analogue computer and the only scientific instrument that has survived from the Hellenistic era. 👉🏼 Get early access and help me choose what to put out next here: https://www.patreon.com/digitwithraven Watch Next ○ Atlantis: Did the Lost City Really Exist? https://youtu.be/pT3CY7TvTOA ○ Archaeologists React to: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (Part 1) https://youtu.be/46TG0doK10c ✅ Lets connect!

Bitsakis, X. Moussas, et al. Nature, Volume 444, Issue 7119, pp. 587-591 (2006). The Antikythera mechanism was an astronomical calculating machine, where you can set a date via the calendars, and it will then show you where all the planets would be, the orbit and phases of the moon, and the eclipse cycle. When the mechanism was first identified, the initial belief was that it was used for navigation, especially because it was found on a ship. Another theory is that the device was made for demonstrative or teaching purposes, not for astronomers who would have needed a much more precise machine to calculate fractions of days and more minute occurrences such as the varying lengths of days and nights. The very existence of the Antikythera Mechanism proves that the ancient Greeks had a deeper understanding and mastery of astronomy than we could have possibly imagined. A knowledge that rivalled science that was being conducted in the 16th century Even scholars who spent their lives studying it have stated that it’s a level of technology that in their mind, couldn’t have existed. But yet, here it is, and verified to have been made within the Hellenistic age. ************** My top archaeology 101 book https://amzn.to/2EcgVtQ ************** Some of these links are affiliate.
