Yes, and famously the ancient Egyptians used steam power for religious trickery and to open a pair of doors to one of their temples.
The trick is that without much better metallurgy and pipework, it wasn’t possible to create the kind of high pressure needed for a steam engine.
Same thing goes for evolution. The rough concept had been around for a while; it took until “deep time”(earth being billions of years old) was proven that we knew that life actually had the kind of time needed to evolve.
The first useful industrial widespread steam engines we low pressure water pumps weren’t they?
High pressure only came later
To be fair, it was low pressure because it operated by creating a partial vacuum from condensing steam.
It took cannon technological development to make the high-pressure chambers for steam engines
mfs had batteries, sheit
If you mean the “Baghdad Batteries” unfortunately not. Deeper analysis has revealed that it was a sort of prayer system. They’d write or offer something, seal it in a small metal box, then put that in a larger jar.
Physics: “There are many possibilities for these basic principles upon which all of reality hinges”
Human civilization: “food more better now”
Mankind stronk (and well-fed) 💪💪💪
This is the greatest description of mankind’s rise and downfall.
I don’t blame him, it’s totally a legit use
The Greeks invented it like 2000 years earlier than that.
I think both the Greek one and this one are more accurately turbines, not engines right? Dunno how big of a difference that makes though.
We say “jet engine” though and that’s a turbine…
That’s true. Although there’s no piston jet engine to confuse it with whereas there is a steam engine and steam turbine that need distinguishing between.

Because the focal point of this is the stream power, not the döners. So, having come up with steam power 2000 years before the Turks is more relevant than migration patterns and cuisine.
There have been quite a lot of Greek guest workers in Germany after WW2 and many stayed here just like the turks.
There is only a German Wikipedia article about this deal, but before the turks came they first had guest workers from Italy and grece in West Germany. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anwerbeabkommen_zwischen_der_Bundesrepublik_Deutschland_und_Griechenland
I wonder if this was stolen when the turks stole anatolia from the Greeks?
No, I didn’t make a mistake in the title
We get it

The Hero’s Engine is a steam engine that was invented in Greece around 50 AD.
