    The Computer at the Bottom of the Sea (the Antikythera mechanism)

    In the spring of nineteen hundred and one, a group of Greek sponge divers were making their way home across the Aegean Sea when bad weather forced them to take shelter near a small, rocky island called Antikythera. While they waited out the storm, they did what sponge divers do. They went diving. One of them dropped down through the clear blue water along the steep underwater slope of the island, and when he came back up, he was badly shaken. He claimed he had seen a heap of dead bodies on the seafloor, the corpses of men and horses lying in the deep. His companions thought he had lost his mind, or perhaps suffered from the dangerous pressures of the dive. So another diver went down to check. He came back with a single object in his hand, a corroded bronze arm. The bodies were not bodies at all. They were statues. The divers had stumbled onto an ancient shipwreck, and inside that wreck was an object that would puzzle the finest minds in the world for the next hundred years.
