Leonardo da Vinci

The Last Supper

"Farò carri coperti, securi e inoffensibili; e quali intrando intra li nimici con le sue artiglierie, non è si grande moltitudine di gente d'arme che non rompessimo. E dietro a questi potranno seguire fanterie assai illese e sanza alcuno impedimiento."(I shall make covered chariots, that are safe and cannot be assaulted; cars which fear no great numbers when breaking through the ranks of the enemy and its artillery. Behind them, the infantrymen shall follow, without fearing injury or other impediments).

Michelangelo Buonarroti

Printing

• The Chinese were the first to invent printing in 868.

• In the mid-1400’s, Johann Gutenberg of Germany invented a printing press using moveable type.

• Now books could be printed with greater speed and less effort.

• The Gutenberg Bible is considered one of the first books ever printed.

Eyeglasses• Eyeglasses were invented in the 1300’s.• With the invention of the printing press in the

1400’s, the demand for eyeglasses increased. • Far-sighted glasses (for reading) were developed

first. • Later on near-sightedness was able to be

corrected.

• The flush toilet, or water closet as it was called dates back to 1589 when it was invented by Sir John Harington.

• Harington invented a valve that when pulled would release water from a water closet. Sir John recommended flushing the toilet once or twice a day, although with our modern technology, we know that is probably not sufficient
