It is an Astronomical instrument, an analogue computer, a mechanical Cosmos working with gears It can be used: • Observations (it can measure angular distance between two astronomical objects objects,, the altitude of a star star,, the Sun Sun,, aplant and hence the geographic latitude using tables tables,, hence its name PINAX ΠΙΝΑΞ, ΠΙΝΑΚΙΔΙΟΝ) • Astronomical computer, computer, predict eclipses • Calendar mechanism (many caledars caledars,, incl. Olympiad) Olympiad) • Meteorological Meteorological--climatological Instrument • Impress your enemies (if you are a Governor or King King)) • School demonstration device • Show up to friends Copyright:: University of Athens, 20 Copyright 201 12 It can be used to: Measure Geographic latitude possibly to measure Geographic longitude (using the Moon position for a place, calculated using Kepler’s laws, Archimedes?, Hipparchus?) possibly the position of the planets. possibly Cartography Copyright:: University of Athens, 20 Copyright 201 12 clock? clock ? it is a mechanical clock clock? ?
