1 jan 549 ano antes da era comum - Kite

Descrição:

The kite was believed to have been invented by two philosophers named Mozi and Lu Ban. Ancient and medieval Chinese sources describe kites being used for measuring distances, testing the wind, lifting men, signaling, and communication for military operations.

Though Mozi and Lu Ban were credited with the invention of the kite, cave paintings found in Muna Island, in Indonesia, which have been dated back to around 9500 BC, depict a type of kite called Kaghati which are still used by the Muna Island natives to this day.
