Oil lamp

As it was known that fire brings light..people always wanted to light up every room without making camp fire in each room..so they come up with this----> an oil lamp.
An oil lamp is an object used to produce light continuously for a period of time using an oil-based fuel source. The use of oil lamps began thousands of years ago and is continued to this day.
Oil lamps are a form of lighting, and were used as an alternative to candles before the use of electric lights. Starting in 1780 the Argand lamp quickly replaced other oil lamps still in their basic ancient form. These were, in turn, replaced by the kerosene lamp in about 1850. In small towns and rural areas these continued in use well into the 20th century, until such areas were finally electrified, and light bulbs could be used for lighting.

PLOUGH


Yes it's a good old plough...
Manny people wonder how did old people come up with invention of the plough..whell story goes like this..
When agriculture was first developed, simple hand-held digging sticks or hoes would have been used in highly fertile areas, such as the banks of the Nile where the annual flood rejuvenates the soil, to create furrows wherein seeds could be sown. To grow crops regularly in less fertile areas, the soil must be turned to bring nutrients to the surface. The first people known to plough were the Sumerians.
So why do we turn the soil?

When an animal flesh and plant debris falls on the ground it starts to deteriorate..By that mean it is eaten by bacterias and worms..and when they do that, they leave Calcium and minerals behind them.. which are very good for future plant..
But what if there is no plant or animals for a longer period..that the soil creates its fertile layer..which you need to turn up for the plants you are going to plant :) or seeds

They invented it  to end the constant burglary and breaking into houses.

BOOMERANG

Boomerang



Very cool thingy :))
We aaaaaall know that boomerang came from Land down under...wright? Australia, wright?

biiiiip....wrong..answer :)


The oldest known boomerangs come from Europe

Used either as a weapon or for sport, these devices are flat, curved structures thrown through the air, only to return to the thrower.
One boomerang that was discovered in Jaskinia Obłazowa in the Carpathian Mountains in Poland was made of mammoth's tusk and is believed, based on AMS dating of objects found with it, to be about 30,000 years old. 



King Tutankhamon, the famous Pharaoh of ancient Egypt, who died over 3,300 years ago, owned a collection of boomerangs of both the straight flying (hunting) and returning variety.


There are many shapes depending on its flight characteristics





I hope you liked it ;) for more info e-mail me or google it

Baghdad battery

Baghdad battery


No it is not made in China..it is made in Baghdad ;)
The story goes like this:
In 1936, while excavating ruins of a 2000-year-old village near Baghdad, workers discovered mysterious small vase. A 6-inch-high pot of bright yellow clay dating back two millenniacontained a cylinder of sheet-copper 5 inches by 1.5 inches. The edge of the copper cylinder was soldered with a 60-40 lead-tin alloy comparable to today's solder. The bottom of the cylinder was capped with a crimped-in copper disk and sealed with bitumen or asphalt. Another insulating layer of asphalt sealed the top and also held in place an iron rod suspended into the center of the copper cylinder. The rod showed evidence of having been corroded with an acidic agent. They found mode than one..

Here is the picture:
Many people tried to reconstruct it..and you guess it..it worked..
Seems like they knew how to make a battery..

But we know that Alessandro Volta made an electrochemical cell in 1800..this was discovered in 1936...no connetions..but only a mistery
It is mostly connected with this Egyptian wall drawing:




  • Priest
  • ionised fumes
  • electric discharge (snake)
  • Lamp socket (Lotos)
  • Cable (Lotos stem)
  • Air god
  • Isolator (Djed-Pillar)
  • Light bringer Thot with knifes
  • Symbol for "current"
  • Inverse polarity (Haarpolarität +)
  • Energy storage (electrostatic Generator?)



  • Maybe they were more advanced then us..or somebody was teaching them...
    If you want to know something else about this topic..e-mail me...or google it ;))

    See you next time ;)








    Saqqara Bird

    THE MAYA CALEDNAR

    the MAYA CALENDAR

    People..this is probobly more sofisticated than the computer you are on now.
    Yeah, it is..no, really ,it is.. ;)



    This is not actually a gadget..but it is a system..as gadgets have some kind of a system..this is a GADGET :)

    I can not describe the whole thing in this post..or in 50 posts..so I'll going to try keep it simple.
    It is a system of calendars...numeric system...religion...and history.

    I bet you all heard for december 23. 2012...it is an end to that calendar which dates back to August 11, 3114 BCE in the proleptic Gregorian calendar or 6 September in the Julian calendar (−3113 astronomical).
    So you can see that they had thier own concept of time..and obviesly and space..they (or someone else) built calendar which suits to universe but not to Earth..you cannot mesure your crop grow by the 260 days of the year XD



    little akward,ha??

    It makes no sence as deeper you get..
    How can someone so primitive, who, by the way, sacrifices people, make such a complex system and vanish  at the top of it's life?..

    Noone can answer..only speculate because the spanish and christian fanatics destroyed 99% of their culture..yeah.. I am angry to


    i've said..simple.. YOU don't have time for complex definitions and number on kechua language ;))


    No pics guys..cuz none of the pics can describe the maya calendar ;))
    This should be pretty enough for you to  be interested..after that..google it..and read more books about it people ;)

    See you next time ;)


    P.S. if the world ends this year..be sure to live your life as best as you can..BE AWESOME ;)
