The idea of planetary indication on the Antikythera mechanism is relatively hotly debated because no hard evidence has ever been found to prove once and for all if such a display existed and if it did how it was engineered. This image is just a general arrangement of the gearing layout, in a similar style to the image on commons of the known mechanism. This image omits all of the known mechanism apart from a1 and b1 to show where in relation the proposed gears fit. |
