The earliest calculating devices include the abacus, which dates back to ancient times and was used by various civilizations, including the Sumerians and Egyptians. Another early device is the tally stick, used for counting and record-keeping. The Antikythera mechanism, an ancient Greek analog computer from around 150-100 BCE, is also notable for its complex gears and ability to predict astronomical positions. These devices laid the groundwork for the development of more sophisticated calculating tools throughout history.
Abacus was the first calculating device invented by the Chinese.

The abacus is believed to have originated in ancient Mesopotamia around 3000 BCE, making it one of the earliest calculating tools. It is thought that the Sumerians were among the first to use a form of the abacus for trade and accounting purposes. Over time, various cultures, including the Egyptians, Greeks, and Chinese, developed their own versions of the abacus, contributing to its evolution as a calculating device.
Calculating clock is the first known calculating device made by Wilhelm Schickard. This machine can perform the basic mathematical operation, but canÕt show too large result which is limited to six digits.
The china had one with rows wooden round balls on wires, 3 rows of them, 3 balls & 3 balls =6 in the last row, that was add, to subtract it was to the left cool
False. The abacus is much older.
The earliest recorded calculating device is the abacus. Used as a simple computing device for performing arithmetic, the abacus most likely appeared first in Babylonia (now Iraq) over 5000 years ago.
Abacus was the first calculating device invented by the Chinese.
