[@Laviolette101]

Parts of the video suggest the Antikythera was a work in progress. The device found was an evolved version of fewer, earlier designs as yet unknown. The basis for this was that it was not created overnite by Archimedes (or someone like him) alone but may have been, like Sir Isaac Newton once said, I did this by standing on the shoulders of giants. It may have been the sum of centuries of contribution. It would make the written timeline mesh with this magnificent monolith staring back at us.

An outstanding presentation by Dr Tony Freeth. Imagine coming across a poster advertising the coming lecture at Stanford University.... Very few apart from some very deep Science students would give it more than a passing glance. Yet I wandered across it quite by accident - a casual browsing not even supported by a KZbin Algorithm - and I stayed for 1 hour and 48+ minutes. So I can imagine that if an eminent scientist and a relative philistine like myself were to be seated together at this lecture we would rise together in enthusiastic applause at the end of it. I am going to have to think about that a bit. "You don't just make progress in science by getting everything right. You make progress also by getting things wrong in an interesting way."

[@patrickday4206]

I watch these at 1.5 to 2.0 speeds so it just seems like a documentary! 😃

[@rogerbibeau3583]

I stumbled upon this completely by accident. I've been interested in this device for decades since first hearing of it, collecting many documentaries. This is, by far, the most scholarly video I've seen on this subject. With many times feeling like I was riding down a steep hill in an out-of-control stagecoach trying to hold onto my hat, trying to keep up with each explanation. Simply outstanding presentation. Completely dazzling to hear how this mechanism came into being. Not wanting to sound condescending, but I think I'm most impressed, besides the obvious, to see almost 4mil views. Normally, I guess I would have expected only hundreds of views about something this academically oriented. This gives me hope on many levels. Some brilliant comments.Thank You.

Some believe many celebs n stuff are reincarnated from the Egyptians but I’m seeing a much greater Greek connection - any input? Just throwing it out there -

[@johnmcclain3887]

Dr. Freeth, I've followed this since 62, when I arrived stateside, having been overseas, "navy brat", was apprized of it then, in Greece, saw an article regarding it mid sixties, and have heard here and there, hints. I'm a mechanic of sixty odd years, and would say it was a good quality working man's tools, as I've made myself, along my way to master machinist. I was five seeing it first, and was truly shocked when I ran across this, not having heard anything for a long time. I think you've done a masterful job, I was amazed decades ago, and again, in my teens, but I've always put it in context with "Hero's steam toy". I've seen a couple other examples of fine detailed machine work, from that time, but as you state, bronze worn out or broken, was recycled. I've made dozens of "engines" for engraving dials, or wheel faces, laying out by degrees, and even mils, for artillery purposes. Thank you for a great presentation, and great work in teasing out all the details, so intricate and and brilliantly discovered.

What do you know about the Greek god Janus

[@patrickblaney1675]

An extraordinarily well-constructed lecture about a complex device that describes the very complex motion of the moon and visible planets in the sky. Just enough explanation of how gears work for those of us who are not engineers, just enough explanation of the orbits of the moon and planets for those of who are still learning astronomy, and just enough about the history of astronomy to know what was known when in antiquity. Extremely well done. Both very educational and very entertaining.

What a fantastic in-depth lecture, really amazing stuff. One has to wonder at the level of sophistication of the ancients, what other wonders have been lost to time. They have been greatly underestimated.

[@wilma8326]

Not lost in time but deliberately hidden and removed from conscious history with the purpose of feeding us the story that we are a breed of human ignorance. We are supposedly some near ape men, just grown out of the stone age, with limited brain capacity and a need for world leaders and supercomputers to make decisions for us. We, as humans, would view ourselves completely different if we knew our race were here on earth for tens of thousanda of years, with all kinds of sophisticated and advanced societies. That's all in our dna, but wr are not supposed to know that

[@bruceprice3583]

[@stunnaoj3186]

[@d_wigglesworth]

The "level of sophistication" of some ancients is remarkable and ranged broadly from technology to ... everything! For example, it appears that the extremely sophisticated Athens lost to (relatively less sophisticated) Sparta as a result of a strong, nascent move to ban slavery. The move to ban slavery inspired resistance by some wealthy Athenians (including Plato's uncle!) who conspired with Spartans to defeat Athen's democracy. I wonder, had Athen's not been betrayed by its own wealthy citizens (sound familiar?!) where would our world be now?

[@patrickday4206]

Yeah the viking swords they found quote "The famed Ulfberht Viking swords were made of metal so pure it baffled archaeologists. It was thought the technology to forge such metal was not invented for another 800 or more years, during the Industrial Revolution. About 170 Ulfberhts have been found, dating from A.D. 800 to 1,000" we should be rethinking the intelligence and time-lines it's pretty easy for things to get lost from a natural disaster plaque or war back then!

[@Rossco603]

One man may of build this, but only from the knowledge of many decades of research. This is truly the most amazing discovery of all antiquity in my opinion. It tells me that the ancients weren't as clueless as one might think. They actually, were much better with a lot of things then we are today, like glass working. Its a shame the library of Alexandrea burnt down. Imagine the discoveries and literature it would of held about the Greeks, and their boundless knowledge.

[@patstokes7040]

The latest thought about the Alexander Library is that it held many unimportant works. and that the very important works of science and philosophy where in other libraries all threw the ancient world. Most works that were written on papyrus literally crumbled away under the weight of other papyrus scrolls. The ancient world had useless and pointless writers just as we have today. The rulers of Alexandrea were known for excepting any bodies writing so they could boost they had more books. Traders from all over the known world would bring scrolls to Alexandrea because they knew they could make some money. Important works were copies and recopies and the rest was of no value.

[@codyparrish3383]

I wonder if the ancients found it somewhere and didn't know what it was either.

@@margasa7 There is not the slightest bit of evidence thay Egypt is involved in this mechanism.

I've seen a lot on Antikythera Mechanism but this video by far has shown the Ultimate amount information on the subject

[@MyMojo13]

Astrolabe - Astrology - Alarm clock - doorbell - plumbing - cement - etc etc etc - The Greek mathematician, philosopher and inventor Archimedes was born around 280 to 290 B.C. in Syracuse, at the time an independent city-state in Sicily. He studied in Egypt with the successors of the Greek mathematician Euclid, designed tools and weapon systems, but preferred pure mathematics. Archimedes gave the world “Eureka!” -- Greek for “I have found it!” and a catch-phrase for scientists. Water Screw - Also called the Archimedes screw or Archimedes snail, the water screw is a device to lift water for irrigation. It was based on a helix, which revolved inside a tube and carried water up on the helical blades. A handle at the high end of the screw was turned to draw up water from the lower to a higher level. Oxen, horses or even humans could power the handle. The screw could also move light granular material such as ashes or sand. This is one of the oldest devices known for lifting water and is still used today in small-scale hydroelectric installations. The main advantage of the Archimedes screw is that it can tolerate large amounts of debris without breaking down. Even fish can be lifted with the water and remain unharmed. Compound Pulley - Pulleys are wheels with grooves along which a rope or chain can be fitted. A person pulling at one end of the rope or chain can lift a load attached to the other end. The pulley wheel supports the load, easing the lifting work. Archimedes invented a compound pulley that uses two or more pulleys to move a load. An input driver wheel is connected with a rope or chain to a follower pulley. When this follower is connected with a rope to yet another following pulley, it becomes the driver for that follower. Archimedes demonstrated how the system can move very heavy loads by using it to lift a three-masted ship out of a harbor. Compound pulleys are in widespread use today to lift heavy loads such as engines from a vehicle body. Iron Hand - The iron hand, also called the Archimedes claw, was a weapon designed by Archimedes to defend Syracuse from attack from the Roman Empire’s fleet in 213 B.C. It consisted of a huge lever. At one end was a grappling hook, or the claw. The claw was maneuvered to grasp the bow of an approaching ship, lift the ship out of the water, then drop it onto the water or onto nearby rocks. The ship's stern would be flooded and the unfortunate crew would be thrown out of the vessel in many directions. Integral Calculus - Integral calculus -- a mathematical theory that derives the areas and volumes of spaces and the relationships between variables such as speed, distance and time -- remains one of Archimedes greatest accomplishments. He calculated areas of figures by breaking them up into a number of tiny rectangles and adding them up together to give a total. Today, this process is called integration and forms the basis of advanced mathematics.

My mind is thoroughly boggled.

[@philiprock131]

I would not be inclined to assume that the teeth were hand cut if only because, given the apparent level of skill and ability of that time, surely it is very possible that a machine method of cutting teeth may have already been produced with no extra or additional skills to those demonstrated already by the Antikythera machine. Just my initial thought. I think Dr Tony Freeth presented and explained the whole subject incredibly well.

@@philiprock131 - machine-cut teeth raises the tech level by another mile or so! they'd need to design the machine to cut the teeth - and each cog would have needed its own template for the different numbers of teeth. probably the same machine could do it, but parts would need to be changed for each new cog, with the machine reset each time ...

Totally fascinating study. Hipparchus, the ancient astronomer from Rhodes was also thought to have had a hand in creating the Antikythera mechanism. The latest study allegedly places the date at 205 BC, just seven years after the death of Archimedes. Dr Freeth and his team pinpointed the origin of the mechanism, possibly to Archimedes himself, although, as suggested his device may well have been a collaboration between Apollonius and Archimedes, who knew each other or other scientific minds and skilled metal craftsmen, now lost to history, using elaborate tools, similar to jewellers for such intricate work. The device may have been a modification or earlier devices, as suggested, as a way of monitoring or predicting the movement of the heavens. More information following further studies will likely emerge. Such a tragedy that the Alexandria library, Egypt was destroyed and information forever lost. Arguments will persist, but hats off to the investigative scientists that are following the clues, evidence and inscriptions left behind by the scientific minds that were originally were involved in creating this device.

@Aurora Peace don't even get me started, omg. The Adena in Ohio worshipped the Hand of Orion, that's the literal name of Betlegeuse.

They also used the same Metonic Lunar Solar calendar, and erected a Shiva Lingam every 20 years, to commemorate a King's rule, just like they did in Egypt, same solar observatory Pyramids, and Stonehenges/ Shiva Lingam same Feathered Serpent Priest Kings (Native American feathered Crown, being the Phoenix). Canaan is Phoenician for Serpent Kings, and the Aztecs spoke how the Serpent King was supposed to rule by outsmarting his subjects. The old Phoenician Serpent Priests were even depicted as serpents in little clay statuettes offered at the Temple of Obelisks in Byblos, from which the Bible takes it's name. There's even a star in Orion called Rigel, also known as Aurora, the Dawnbringer, Phoenicians even transmutes to the Scions/Sons of the Phoenix, or Sons of light, exactly how the authors of the Dead Sea Scrolls identify themselves, exactly what the name Freemason means, (House of light) a reference to Isis worship. Tyre/Jerusalem was also a center of Masonry, just like Thebes, then there are the twin cities of Heliopolis, one in Lebanon (israel) and one in Egypt, it was the Heliopolis that the Phoenix returned from India, anointing itself in frankincense and myrrh before stepping onto the Holy Grail, Philosopher's Stone to self immolate and be reborn by the baptism of fire. It represents a metonic cycle of 3 216 year periods, when Venus rose un the Spring with Orion, representing Lucifer, the Light Bringer, where they would add 3 days to the calendar to coincide their holy days with the zodiac. The Antithykera mechanism was also based on the Metonic cycle, and was the basis for Revelations, marking the transition of the age of Pisces into the age of Aquarius from 2001 to 2021. The mechanism was even found off Potamos island, aka Patmos, the island where St John (Code for Osiris) wrote Revelations. The New testament reads just like you would the Antithykera mechanism, anthropomorphizing Jesus as the Sun and Moon, Orion, and Serpentis, the 13th sunsign of the Babylonian zodiac associated with Hermes, Thoth, Enoch, etc. The feathered Serpent, the Phoenix, the American Eagle are all the same thing, a symbol of resurrection, based on the cycle of the Sun and Moon.

What measuring instruments did they use, did they use vernier scales for finer measurements or something like a shadow graph to magnify the error. Could we make something this like this today? What method was used to make the letters. We need more history like this to be taught.

No! The only mechanisms described here are gear sets and pin-and-slot pairs; both digital device categories. There is no analog mechanism mentioned within the Antikythera Mechanism to confer analog motion. As an inventor of two CVT's and an IVT (all analog mechanisms), I can assure you that gears & indexers cannot produce an analog ratio without an analog (continuously variable) component.

Items like this always reinforce my confidence that, prior to ancient Egypt, prior to the Younger Dryas, there was a far advanced global civilization. Survivors of which passed knowledge along. I have no doubt that, at some point, this will be proven and more broadly accepted as fact. It’s the only way the understanding of earth and space, as well as specific Egyptian construction techniques (tube drill, fine machining work, function-focused monolithic construction. We dismiss a lot of Egyptian monolithic construction techniques as being only tombs and only from the dynastic period. If that’s true, then why is the precision work done so early on and then gets progressively worse in terms of precision? Evidence, in my opinion, for pre-younger dryias advanced tech (ultrasonics?) and a vast understanding of earth and space.

[@maninalift]

Oh please stop it! We have very incomplete records but we have enough to see the development of quantitative astronomy from ancient Mesopotamia and Egypt up trough Greek and Roman civilisation. The vague claims of "ancient advanced civilizations" function like conspiracy theories. Mott and Bailey rhetoric; never truly defending a theory; attaching to any new evidence that can be incorporated into a narrative etc These take away from actually amazing discoveries. Presuming that the ancient cultures that we know about couldn't have innovated. There's is certainly much that we don't know. Perhaps there were "advanced civilizations" in the much further ancient time. Unfortunately, anything useful that the likes of Graham Hancock has to say is son buried in wishful thinking and conspiracy arguments as to be useless and diatracting from the process of actually discovering things.

[@urektus69]

An advanced global civilization would require a massive economy to support it. They would have left behind a massive footprint of advanced tech, metal tools, semiconductors... And they would also have left behind traces of their cities and infrastructure. If we can find evidence of primitive tools and settlements from tens of thousands of years ago, then we would surely be able to find much more advanced buildings like factories, roads... Concrete and metal last much longer than flimsy stone tools and yet we've ever only found the latter. If there were an advanced civilization prior to the Younger Dryas, the evidence would be everywhere but that is not the case.
