All Rights Reserved The Astrolabe of Antikithyra One of the most impressive things found in this period was the Astrolabe of Antikithyra. Some sponge collectors found it in 1901 inside near the Antikithyra island. In the Greek research centre 'Demokritos' professor Derek de Solla Piere (from Yale university) and Har. Karakalos examined it with X-rays and found an amazingly complex construction. inside It is the most complex mechanical construction until 1200 A.D.! The function of a common astrolabe is inside to measure the altitudes of celestial bodies, from which time the observer's latitude could be determined, too. The measurement of the altitude of the North Star yields the latitude and the altitude of the Sun and stars yields the time.
