Odometers
Odometers are measuring tools that help quantify distance. They were
originally used to figure out how much distance has already been travelled by
a vehicle. Although there is still a dispute around the original Greek
inventor of the odometer (some say it’s Hero of Alexandria while others point
out to Archimedes), there’s no doubt that the invention of the odometer has
helped the ancient Greek civilization. It helped the Greeks to create roads
and bridges for travelling, set milestones at specific distances, and helped
develop their empire, boosting their economic standing.
