"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).

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 • 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
