The structure, roughly 9 feet (2.9 m) square, was found about 2 feet (0.6 m) underground. The granary is smaller than other nearby structures that appear to have been houses, an indication of its different use. Interestingly, the structure has two levels, an architectural feature never seen before in buildings of this age. Its significance as the world's first granary is that it belongs to one of the world's first settled farming communities, built just as people began to live in one place all year round rather than wandering from place to place in search of their food. In other words, it marks the time when early people were making the historic transition from more...

"Man carries the weight of gravity on his shoulders. But he has only to sink below the surface to be free" Jacques Cousteau The aqualung, invented in 1943 by Frenchmen Jacques Cousteau (1910-1997) and Emile Gagnan (1900-1979) transformed underwater exploration, engineering, and marine biology. For the first time, divers could .move.-around freely, and undertake lengthy dives. The invention consisted of compressed air in cylinders, worn on the diver's back and connected to a mouthpiece through a regulated "demand" valve. This Self-Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus—SCUBA—is very similar to the diving equipment we use today. Before this aqualung was invented, divers used various techniques for underwater exploration. Snorkeling, using a short tube connected to the mouth with one end above the surface, allows exploration in shallow waters. Attempts to explore deeper using a longer snorkel tube were limited by the diver's need to stay fairly close to the air source. A rebreather more...
