Synopsis

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Antikythera wreck is a shipwreck from the 2nd quarter of the 1st century BC. It was discovered by sponge divers off Point Glyphadia on the Greek island Antikythera in the early 1900s. The wreck produced numerous statues dating back to the 4th century BC, as well as the world's oldest known analog computer, the Antikythera mechanism. In October 1900, a team of sponge divers led by Captain Dimitrios Kondos had decided to wait out a severe storm hampering their sail back from Africa on the island of Antikythera, and they began diving for sponges off the island's coastline.
