Technology in classical antiquity

Within an authentic-looking framework, we embark on a voyage through the world of Greek and Roman technology. We avoid modern screen projections and encounter unique reproductions that revive the past.
With hundreds of replicas of the inventions of yesteryear and technical plans on papyrus, leather and parchment, we walk along the successive technological innovations.
We see knowledge building up and evolving, sometimes getting lost and being rediscovered, or stagnating for centuries before being revived.
The content of the following web pages are foretastes, the scope of the didactical story and the accompanying material is considerably larger.
