Electricity in ancient India!! Saturday, Nov 5 2005
Were ancient indians using electricity? Were electrical appliances common household items in india then?
An ancient indian text agasthya samhita describes the manufacturing of electrical batteries as follows:
“Place a well-cleaned copper plate in an earthenware vessel. Cover it first by copper sulfate and then moist sawdust. After that put a mercury-amalgamated-zinc sheet on top of an energy known by the twin name of Mitra-Varuna. Water will be split by this current into Pranavayu and Udanavayu. A chain of one hundred jars is said to give a very active and effective force.”
By the way, mitra is cathode and varuna is what we call anode today, Pranavayu is oxygen and udanavayu is hydrogen.
