Tea is good for you Hello guys, I made a research about tea and I wrote a summary, can someone have a look on it? :) Since the 2nd Century A.D., several Chinese medical texts deal with benefits which can be obtained from tea, whereas a Japanese monk, Eisai, wrote in 1211 A.D. a book entitled “maintain the health drinking tea” in which he wrote: “tea is a miraculous medicine to maintain the health, it has an extraordinary power to extend the life”. In the 16th Century, European explorers, who tried for first to drink tea, claimed to have used it to fight: flu, headache, muscle pain and stomach ache. If you believe or not believe, we have to know that leaves of that plant are being used for 4000 years and they have been known for their benefit effect on the health. Technically, in order to be called tea, the product has to be extracted from the leaves of “camelia sinsensis”, the evergreen tea plant. There are 3 kinds of tea: black, oolong and green, they are classified on the base of processing methods.

The Antikythera mechanism The Antikythera mechanism In 1900 when a sunken ship was found out around the 80 B.C by a group sponge divers, off the coast of the island of The Antikythera mechanism, between Crete and Greek's coast. Inside the wreck, the archeologists discovered what looks like only a rusty block of metal without great worth. They didn't know what they have in their hands, one of the big mysteries of the history. The discoveries spotted underwater have been carried to the national museum of Athens, where they are to this day. As the moths went by, and an archeologist, Valerio Strais, was analyzing that mass of rust, discovered its real nature: it was a sophisticated mechanism, compound of thirty gears, upon which are etched some Greek scripts. Despite the encrustations caused by longtime spend underwater, it was possible to see the teeth of the gears wheels, perfectly crafted in bronze, a skill that Greeks,as far as based on what we know, didn't absolutely have. So, what is it and where does it come from that object which is called today the “mechanism of Antikythera”? The American university of Yale looked into it. ThankS to the patient work of professor Derek De Solla Price, the mechanism has been finally rebuilt, so revealing part of some of its secrets. It's an astrological calculator, a kind of( a sort of) rudimentary(primordial) computer which was able to predict the relations of movements among stars, the Moon, the Sun and the Earth. Thus, it's thought that the mechanism was inside of a container and the gears could be maneuvered from outside. Therefore, a high technological object, which is a witness of an old unknown knowledge for us. According to the archeologists, in fact, Greeks like other ancient peoples weren't able to create such a sophisticated devices. Some parts of its parts are so much innovative which would be invented only in 1500. In addition(furthermore), why haven't other mechanics or gears ever been found with the same characteristics?
