The advancement of technology has drastically changed our way of life compared to the past. Before the era of modern telecommunications, these ancient Greeks can provide us with insights into the first long-distance communication methods. Although smoke communication from colorful torches was known at that time, other unique methods involved the use of water as a means of delivering messages. Here is the story of ancient Greek soldiers communicating using water as a medium!
In 350 BC, a Greek named Aeneas discovered the hydraulic telegraph, which was a means of quickly conveying important and detailed information over long distances.
The translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags is as follows: "Telegraph involves a system of water vessels with poles that carry agreed-upon messages, such as "a horse rider enters the country" or "a ship". Both groups wishing to communicate are equipped with similar equipment and placed separately, but still within sight, usually on top of hills."
When one party wants to send a message to another party, they will light a torch. After seeing the torch lit, the second party will light their torch to ensure that they are ready to receive the message.
After the torch is lit, the second party or other posts will also light the torch as a sign of readiness to receive the message. Next, the message sender will lower their torch, and at the same time, both posts will remove the plug from the water-filled barrel. After the water barrel is empty, the message sender needs to relight their torch to signal the recipient to immediately connect their container and read the sent message.
Although the process may seem simple, sending a message requires caution from both parties. It is important to be careful when opening and closing the water channel inside the barrel, ensuring that the message conveyed is in accordance with what has been sent by the previous post.
With the existence of hydraulic telegraph, the military can now convey special messages that enable military personnel and civilians to be more prepared to face potential invasions by land or sea. The early form of long-distance communication was advanced in its time and paved the way for future forms of communication, giving birth to many methods that we have today.
These words may be simple, but they can make them feel very valuable.
