I continue to publish articles on the topic of ancient technologies that are not inferior to modern ones, and sometimes even surpass them. Ancient structures raise many questions for me. How could they perfectly fit the stones in the pyramids and raise them to a height? Did you know that recently Japanese scientists tried to build a replica of a pyramid, only 7 times smaller than the Great Pyramid of Giza?

For their own purposes, they decided not to use modern tools and the experiment failed miserably. Why, did our ancestors have secret knowledge? Apparently.

The device, which is called Zhang's seismoscope, is also surprising, and it was invented at the beginning of the first century. In terms of its accuracy, it is not inferior to modern technologies and is the first device that is capable of capturing seismic activity. I'm not kidding. It turns out that 2 thousand years ago, people already possessed similar technologies.

At the time of the invention, this device was not popular. Moreover, many scientists of that time looked at the scientist with disbelief, considering him almost crazy. But this device was thousands of years ahead of its time.

The fact is that in the past, natural disasters were treated as if they were a punishment of the gods, and who would resist their power? The height of the device was about 2 meters and the work consisted of tilting the ball in the direction where the earthquakes occurred, even for a hundred miles its accuracy was amazing.

How did a Chinese scientist manage to create such a technology 2 thousand years ago?
