Recently new findings have been made and the device has been dated even further back then the original estimate of 87 B.C, all the way to between 150 and 100 B.C. Scientists have also concluded that the connection of the device to Archimedes is even less likely. Scientists have attempted to examine the original site of the shipwreck where the mechanism was found, but had to cancel early due to bad weather. They plan to make another attempt next spring.
It never ceases to amaze how brilliant people were so many centuries ago. I for one can’t wait to find out if other interesting discoveries are made at that site. Who knows, maybe they had WiFi too!
