At the site of the discovery of the famous Antikythera mechanism, the skeleton of an ancient man was also found.
This find was discovered by scuba divers who dived at the wreck of an ancient ship. Fragments of clothing were found near the remains of Lee, which were selenium from fabric and wood.
At the moment, it is rather difficult to say who these remains belong to. Soon, it is planned to conduct a DNA analysis of these bones in order to answer the question - to whom they belong.
Recall that the first wreck of a ship that sank more than two thousand years ago was discovered in 1901. The crash was due to the fact that the ship stumbled on coastal reefs.
This ancient ship became so famous due to the fact that an incomprehensible mechanism was discovered on board, the functions of which are still not fully understood.
At the moment, scientists believe that this is a kind of device that allows you to calculate the movement of celestial bodies. Used for navigation at sea. From itself it is a cylinder with dimensions of 30/17/6 centimeters. There are bronze gears inside the wooden case, on the case itself there are several dials with arrows. Scientists believe that this particular device was produced on the island of Rhodes.
