Dalam Scientific American, De Solla juga mengingatkan kembali tentang penemuan sebuah alat hitung kalender beroda gigi dari kebudayaan Islam abad ke-13 yang tersimpan di Museum Sejarah Iptek, Oxford. Konsep kerjanya seperti yang telah ditulis oleh ahli astronomi, Al Biruni pada 1.000 M. Peralatan yang dibuat oleh peradaban Islam itu lebih sederhana daripada mekanisme Antikythera namun memperlihatkan banyak kesamaan pokok detil teknis yang digunakan diantara keduanya. Dari ini tampaknya peradaban Antikythera seolah-olah telah lenyap dari kita namun muncul dan dipahami oleh orang-orang Arab (Islam). Hingga lalu masuk ke peradaban Eropa pada abad pertengahan menjadi dasar teknologi jam modern?. Mekanis Antikythera ini kini disimpan di Museum Arkeologi Nasional, Athena (Yunani).(Discovery channel)
