Antikythera mechanism: Difference between revisions

Patience, brothers. Soon we will reveal the secrets of Assassin's Creed: Nexus VR.

This article has been identified as being out of date. Please update the article to reflect recent releases and then remove this template once done.

The Antikythera mechanism is a small portion of an Eye, a prognostication device created by the Isu, used to make probability-based predictions of future events, otherwise known as "calculations".^[1]

Originally thought to date to 150 BCE, it was found to be much older.^[2]

After the mechanism's rediscovery at the start of the 20th century, it was believed to be an analog computing device built to determine the future positions of astral bodies, until Abstergo Industries researchers discovered its real purpose in the early 21st century.^[1]
