Called the first mechanical computer, it was discovered in a Shipwreck of the island of Antikythera under 45 meters of water. Designed to calculate astronomical positions. It is a box with dials on the outside, and a complex assembly of gears mounted within the box. The complexity equals that of a 18th century clock. Nothing similar exists, nor is it mentioned in any writings. Professor Michael Edwards from the Cardiff University says "The device is so extraordinary one of its kind" design is outstanding and he says : "I have to regard this mechanism as being more valuable as the Mona Lisa" '
Nobody has been able to determine how the Ancients managed to build such a complex calculator.
