Well, they totally made the design for the antykithera look like the actual thing right? No.
I mean I understand that they made it look "cooler", but I think that if they made it like the original it would be less like that one itch that is just out of reach. In summary, I wish that they would've been more attenuate to the details. Jeremy Porter (MD) (talk) 01:24, 13 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know whether this point has been discussed before however it seems obvious to me that the subject of the article is not actually exclusively the cultural property of Ancient Greece. The item was found on board a Roman cargo vessel at the time when Greece was a well established part of the Roman Republic. This fact does not appear to be very well represented in the opening part of the article, which gives the impression that this was exclusively a cultural item of Ancient Greece. Can I suggest that the opening sentence instead starts with: "The Antikythera mechanism is a Roman-era, Ancient Greek hand-powered orrery (model of the Solar System."Anvib (talk) 22:25, 19 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
