The “Interactive path in the panorama of Ancient Greek Technology” reveals the most representative inventions of the ancient Greeks through a live journey into the world of technological inventions, physics, mathematics, history and engineering.
The permanent collection of the Museum presents experientially a series of emblematic inventions, starting from the first robot in history – the maid of Philon to the cinema of Heron and from the automatic clock of Ktesibios to the first analog computer of Antikythera, covering the period from 2000 B.C. until the end of the ancient Greek world.
