Did ancient people have electricity thousands of years before modern technology?

The mysterious Baghdad Battery has fascinated historians, archaeologists and scientists for decades. Discovered near Baghdad, this ancient object raises a fascinating question: could people in the ancient world have understood electricity?

In this animated history video, we explore the Baghdad Battery, how it was constructed, what happens when similar objects are combined with an electrolyte, and what the evidence can — and cannot — tell us.

Was it really an ancient battery? Or was it created for another purpose?

We separate historical evidence from modern experiments, theories and speculation to explore one of history's most mysterious inventions.

Ancient history explained through storytelling, historical animation and our iconic blue-hat stick figure.

How was this possible?
