101. Baghdad Batteries
Khujut Rabu in Iraq
The Year 1936 was Discovered
Est. Value Unknown
The Baghdad Battery, also known as the Baghdad Battery, was found in Khujut Rabu in Iraq, near Ctesiphon. This is the location of Ctesiphon’s former capital, which dates back to the Parthia Empire and the Sasanian empire. Baghdad Battery refers to a group of three artifacts discovered together: a copper tube, an iron rod, and a pot made of ceramic.
Wilhelm Konig, a scientist at the National Museum of Iraq in Iraq, thought that this object might have been able to function as a battery. However other scientists disagreed. Some believed that it was an ancient vessel used to store sacred scrolls. The true purpose of Baghdad Battery, which dates back 2,000 years, has not yet been revealed.
