The history of invention is a challenging field, not least because it’s a topic that knows no borders or strict time frames. Innovation and inspiration are boundless through human history, which makes it rather daunting. This might give some explanation as to why our main focus of attention when it comes to great inventions tends to lean towards the Renaissance or Industrial Revolution, but the medieval era was not short of groundbreaking ideas. As we’ll explore here, important scientific leaps and popular new products were invented in this era, some of which remain important to this day.
