A Harrison chronometer.
Harrison was the first person to make marine clocks/watches robust and accurate enough to enable proper calculation of longitude at sea.
In the 1700s there was a prize of £20,000 available to someone achieving the above. Harrison was eventually grudgingly paid part of this prize.

10,000 years of Middle Eastern civilisation and the place is not at peace but rather in pieces.
