Anyone who believed that the submarine was a modern invention had not read an interesting old manuscript written by Wang Kia, a Chinese priest, who lived in the fourth century of our era, and who therein declares that the submarine was employed by the Chinese 300 years before the birth of Christ. Writing about the history of the Emperor Shi-Hoang-Ti, of the Han dynasty, who reigned from 221 to 210 8.C., Wang Kia says:—“The people of Yuen-ku came to China, having made the voyage in a 10-chau (which is literally a ship in the shape of a spiral mussel). This ship is capable of passing quite close to the bottom of the sea without the water penetrating inside her.”
