Welcome to Online Museum, dedicated to the History of the World Engineering Engineering has existed since ancient times as humans devised fundamental inventions such as the pulley, lever, and wheel.
The term engineering itself has a much more recent etymology, deriving from the word engineer, which itself dates back to 1325, when an engine’er (literally, one who operates an engine) originally referred to “a constructor of military engines.” Later, as the design of civilian structures such as bridges and buildings matured as a technical discipline, the term civil engineering entered the lexicon as a way to distinguish between those specializing in the construction of such non-military projects and those involved in the older discipline of military engineering. Archimedes, Ctesibius, Hero of Alexandria from Ancient Greece,
Al-Jazari (lived during the Islamic Golden Age), who described fifty mechanical devices along with instructions on how to construct them,
Filippo Brunelleschi, Mariano di Iacopo, Francesco di Giorgio, Agostino Ramelli (Italy), Jacques Besson (France) from Renaissance Era
and hundreds of other brilliant Inventors brick by brick were built a Tower, which name is Modern Engineering. |
