A
compass is a navigational instrument for finding directions. A compass can tell
you the direction an object is from you. This is known as the bearing. It can
also indicate which direction you are going towards, this is known as your
heading. First invented in ancient China around 247BCE, the magnetic compass
was already in use for navigation by the 11th century.
This
unique invention enabled mariners to navigate safely far from land, increasing
sea trade, and contributing to the Age of Discovery. Although the world has
transformed from the Middle-Ages to Modern Era, the compass has continued to
play a significant role in indicating the direction-of-travel and the discovery
of modern societies.
