- compass:
The compass was invented in China. As early as in the Warring States Period （450 B.C.-221 B.C.）, a magnet was used as a device that pointed to magnetic north, and this device was named “Si Nan” by the ancient Chinese. In the Northern Song Dynasty （960 A.D.-1127 A.D.）, another device was invented with a magnetic iron needle that pointed to magnetic north, and this device was later used in navigation. The compass was introduced to Europe in the 13th century. 中國首先發(fā)明指南針。 戰國時(shí)期，中國已經(jīng)用磁石制成了指南的儀器，古人稱(chēng)它為“司南”。 北宋時(shí)，又發(fā)明了用天然磁石摩擦鋼針制成的羅盤(pán)針，即真正的指南針，并應用于航海。 13世紀指南針傳到歐洲。
