The Archytas Mechanical Bird - a flying machine of antiquity, capable of flapping its wings and flying up to 200 meters, created around 400 to 350 BCE.

It’s easy to assume that robots are a relatively recent invention, but in fact, the history of robotics stretches back well over 2000 years. The first, a steam-powered bird was created around 400 to 350 BCE by the ancient Greek mathematician Archytas.

Archytas’ invention is often cited as the first robot, and, in light of recent technological advancements, perhaps we could even consider it to be the first drone.

Unfortunately, very few details are actually known about the ancient mechanical bird. This early discovery was chronicled a few hundred years later in the pages of a scientific text by a mathematician, Hero of Alexandria.

Namely, Archytas constructed his robo-bird out of wood and used steam to power its movements. The bird, suspended from a pivot bar, was at one point able to fly about 200 meters before it ran out of steam—which makes Archytas’ experiment not just the first known robot, but was also one of the first recorded instances of a scientist doing research on how birds fly.

Noah’s Ark. Spain, 12th century.

From a 12th century version of 'The Commentary on the Apocalypse' by Beatus of Liébana. Commentary on the Apocalypse (Commentaria In Apocalypsin) was originally an eighth century work by the Spanish monk and theologian Beatus of Liébana. Today, it refers to any of the extant manuscript copies of this work, especially any of the 26 illuminated copies that have survived. It is often referred to simply as the Beatus. The historical significance of the Commentary is made even more pronounced since it included a world map.

What is Taiwan Tartaria?

It all started two and a half years ago. I found a book. The book had a map. The map incorporated Taiwan but the empires name I did not recognize. I did more research. It became an addiction. Because I live in Formosa and my wife is Taiwanese. I have uncovered a lot about the world through this work. You begin a journey of looking at things in a different way. This is the very essence of life. Never give up. You will be rewarded. Tartaria is a world wide civilization responsible for creating much of the unexplained architecture and tunnel networks that we are mistakenly attributing to our current governments. Taiwan is Tartarian and Roman. Churches were here long before
Buddhist temples.

The corporate media and the state are one entity with different branches, this is true when you follow the money.. Tucker is a voice of relative reason criticizing the establishment to maintain trust in him as the dialectic shifts from team blue to team red again... so we are well served to listen to Tucker to understand what direction the beast is moving in in the future.
The system knew it was burning the last vestiges of trust in the system with covid... I've found it helpful to view the evil idiocy on display everywhere in politics as agitation propaganda to build team red into a frenzy. Very similar to Germany leading up to ww2, where Germans allowed a full concentration of power to the NSDAP.
So if Tucker is flirting with national socialist ideas, it is useful to see this as a forthcoming hard right regime change which Americans will go to war to protect.. just my opinion but once you see the problem>reaction>solution trick to consolidating power in the world, is impossible to unsee
