Imagine how many genius humans weren’t ever famously known for their inventions we just know a few people that were most talked about

"Yo bruh where is my computer?"

"Sorry sire it has sunk."

The book has always intrigued me. Not one mistake…..not an ink blot, scratched out word or letter, coffee stain….nothing. It could be older than the parchment it was written on, in other words …… it was copied from a far more ancient text. Even so, whoever hand wrote this book or copied it from another, did so perfectly….almost robotically. Amazing.

Given that the Library of Alexandria was built in 283 BC and wasn't burned until 270 AD, the knowledge of this device (perhaps a blue print) may have been stored in Alexandria during the time of its creation. The scrolls or parchment related this device could have been one of those lost knowledge in Alexandria.

Imagine how advanced humanity would be if that artifact would’ve reached its destination.

I don't think we give ancient humans enough credit.

[Noor_Jacobs]

It is remarkable that the book has no mistakes, and everything written inside the book is articularly done.

I'm sure that the Antikathyra mechanism was preceded by simpler computers, making it not the first computer, but the oldest surviving computer.

After watching this video, I think if we ever managed to successfully travel back in time, we would find a whole new past that will shook our present and history we have known all along.

We for sure are missing a HUGE part of history.

"This technology could not have existed at that time."

Rather than this approach, how about we now start saying, "This proves our ancestors were FAR more advanced than we ever thought possible." (Spoken in the man's British accent of course)

I'm amazed that there is no mention or link to Clicksprings channel on YT. He's making/reproducing the Antikythera machine and exploring the methods most probably used to make the original. Very informative, very relaxing and amazing workmanship.

Humans in Antiquity: *invents computer*
Humans today: "EARTH IS FLAT!!!"

[spydaerr]

Really makes you wonder what we lost when the library of Alexandria burned

[theq]

Imagine the book just being a rickroll link you need to put into the computer.

[helixgamer]

i'm sure someone already considered this possibility, but the fact that there are no mistakes or corrections in the manuscrips could mean that it's a copy and the original is much older. back then many old books were preserved in monasties, where monks rewrote them page by page even if they couldn't read them.

[crazysnake]

I still think the voynich manuscript is the most elaborate prank in history.

[thelurkingrogue]

Youtube: hey we should put this in everybody's recommendation 3 years later

[corbin_parker]

I feel bad for the person who made that thing he would have gone down in scientific history but now no one even know who built it or who he was.

[grfrjiglstan]

What if the Antikythera Mechanism is actually able to decode the Voynich Manuscript, and this is just the start of a National Treasure movie?
