The Antikythera mechanism is believed to be the earliest mechanical analog "computer", according to Derek J. de Solla Price. It was designed to calculate astronomical positions. It was discovered in 1901 in the Antikythera wreck off the Greek island of Antikythera, between Kythera and Crete, and has been dated to circa 100 BC. Devices of a level of complexity comparable to that of the Antikythera mechanism would not reappear until a thousand years later.
What is thought to be the first mechanical analog computer? When was the Antikythera mechanism discovered? Where was the Antikythera mechanism found in 1901? Where is the Greek Island of Antikythera located between? The Antikythera mechanism was thought to be the first computer according to whom?
