I heard that sumerians had helmets that were so fine that it could be rivaled only by our current technology.

Tripitaka Koreana, consisting of over 80,000 blocks, created during mongol invasions, was stored in Hae-In temple, but in the 1970's they moved some to a modern storage facility with air humidity control etc, and defections started to appear, and they moved them back to the old temple where no problems arose

I believe i saw a doc - on a mechanical moon calandar - from around the Galileo era. Galileo also created a pretty kool - measuring device - for the "mile stones"

I think we're just beginning to grasp what Greek Fire was. It was never written down, so we just may never know. But it's believed to be some kind of petroleum product.

In June, 1936, while a new railway was being constructed near the city of Baghdad workers uncovered an ancient tomb. In the excavation that followed it was determined that the tomb was built during the Parthian period which ranged from 250 BC to AD 250 (+/-).

According to most texts the "voltic pile," or electric battery, was invented in 1800 by the Count Alassandro Volta. Volta had observed that when two dissimilar metal probes were placed against frog tissue, a weak electric current was generated. Volta discovered he could reproduce this current outside of living tissue by placing the metals in certain chemical solutions. For this, and his other work with electricity, we commemorate his name in the measurement of electric potential called the volt.
The little Parthian jar found in ancient Western Iranian territories of Greater Iran (now Iraq), suggests that Volta didn't invent the battery, but reinvented it. The jar was first described by German archaeologist Wilhelm Konig in 1938.  The jar was found in Khujut Rabu just outside modern Baghdad and is composed of a clay jar with a stopper made of asphalt. Sticking through the asphalt is an iron rod surrounded by a copper cylinder. When filled with vinegar - orany other electrolytic solution - the jar produces about 1.5 to 2.0 volts.

The jars are believed to be about 2000 years old from the Parthian period (The third Iranian dynasty ruled roughly 248 BCE to 28 April CE 224),  and consist of an earthenware shell, with a stopper composed of asphalt. Sticking through the top of the stopper is an iron rod. Inside the jar the rod is surrounded by a cylinder of copper. Konig thought these things looked like electric batteries and published a paper on the subject in 1940.
World War II prevented immediate follow-up on the jars, but after hostilities ceased, an American, Willard F. M. Gray of the General Electric High Voltage Laboratory in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, built some reproductions. When filled with an electrolyte like grape juice, the devices produced about two volts.

Not all scientists accept the "electric battery" description for the jars. If they were batteries, though, who made them and what were they used for?
Unfortunately, there is no written record as to the exact function of the jar, due to destruction of Iranian literary sources and libraries by Arabs upon invasion of Iranian territories in 7th century, but the best guess is that it was a type of battery.
Scientists believe the batteries (if that is their correct function) were used to electroplate items such as putting a layer of one metal (gold) onto the surface of another (silver), a method still practiced in Greater Iran today.

 Electroplating is practiced everywhere around the world not just in iran. I find this hard to believe, that they've discovered a battery so early. If they've invented that, this would have been a great achievement. So the arabs were a killer of  great civilisation, if this invention was recorded and someone has exploited them today we would been travelling outside the solar system.

In the first emperor tomb of Chin China. They discovered some swords that had some compound steel layer on them. I have forgot what type. I read an article on it. This technology was later discovered again by the Germans during ww2. The layer prevented the sword from rust and made them tougher. There was a sword that was bent by a collaped tomb warrior. they removed the warrior and the sword turned straight by itself. Such type of position-memorizing mental wasn't discovered until the 20th century also.

during the three kingdom period of china, the preminister of shu state also invented some wooden cows could contain and transport foods for the army. the wooden cows could move by themselves.

he also invented the most ancient rocket. the concept of the rocket is similar to that of the modern one. it was for communication purposes of the military and had fire underneath.
