14. The Antikythera Mechanism
Also known as the “ancient computer”, this artifact was discovered near the Antikythera Island during 1901. This artifact had innumerable gears and levers on that could never be implemented today with all the technology now. When these controls were checked with an X-ray during 2006, it was found out that the artifact was used for astronomical and astrological purposes, for predicting the various cycles and the other related activities.
