HOW THE ANCIENT GREEKS WORK METAL IS STILL A MYSTERY
According to the researchers, the mechanism shows the motion of the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn planets on concentric rings. The device assumes that the Sun and the planets revolve around the Earth.
Researchers believe their work brought them closer to a true understanding of how the Antikythera device represented paradise, but without a lathe to shape the metal, how the ancient Greeks produced such components remains a mystery.
