Notably, the discovery in 1900 of a rock with a gear encrusted inside it resulted in the discovery of the antikythera mechanism, a computing device made of precision crafted metal wheels and gears. The antikythera mechanism is thought to have been created in 205 bce. https://www. youtube. com/watch?v=4euibfqkjqi. The first analog computer in modern europe was a tide-predicting machine, invented by sir. Thomson"s desig(cid:374) used a system of pulleys and wires to automatically calculate predicted tide levels for a set period at a particular location and was of great utility to navigation in shallow waters. His device was the foundation for further developments in analog computing.
