    Extremely advanced machine.... Amazing. Breathtaking.... It makes you wonder.

    There used to be a "crank" attached to the device. It is now considered "lost." That was it's only power source, so to speak.

    Sweet Christ on the Cross- that was wild. You have to ask yourself- what happened to the world in 23 centuries- ? What does this say about the origins of clock-making? All you need is a steady amount of water for high- accuracy clocks. This thing is a friggin' computer. Advanced concepts all meshed together. What other computational devices were made or conceptualized? I've been eagerly awaiting this final push to understand the mechanism- what a triumph.

    @35FILMPROJECTION11 you mean the origin of the date of the mechanism? It was found in a shipwreck of 80BC.

    Although this is supposedly Greek the influence of the Sumerian astronomical importance of the number 12,10 and 60 can be seen in this highly sophisticated mechanism. Amazing to think how technologically advanced these ancient civilisations actually were. The Sumerian's supposedly came straight after stone age man yet their Cunieform alphabet contains over 400 characters! Yet Modern English has 26 letters making up ours!! History needs re-writing!

    I'm not convinced of the origins or the date, you can send a sample of some old thing to 12 different labs to be carbon dated and when the test are complete you can have 12 different r7esults ( 12 different dates).
