Back to Middle-earth Month

What if the Antikythera mechanism was a relic from Númenor? I'd think that the Numenoreans were more than capable of creating such devices; perhaps with the help of the Blue Wizards? The Antikythera mechanisms might have been used on all of the ships and if this one (the one found at Antikythera) was on board one of the ships that sank, it would explain how it came to be discovered. Or it could have been on the Last Ship Out, who knows?

Note: this prompt grew out of a discussion on a friend's lj. :)
