Antikythera Mechanism

We all see movies and there we come across dialogues like, ” this is the most difficult lock that is somewhat impossible to break ( eventually the lead of the movie cracks it very easily ).” But what we have here is the wreckage of a Greek cargo ship, that is dated to be over 2,000 years old. Whoever designed this must have been a genius, just look at this piece of marvel. Experts say it has an intricate network of interlocking gears that has amazed every modern archaeologist and suggests that it was used as an astrological calendar ( yes, not a lock but a calendar). It is one of the most phenomenal pieces of machinery found from that period in the last 1,000 years.
