The given answer to 11 is wrong. I spotted it was Chinese. Traditional Chinese magnetic compasses pointed south (not north - the "correct" answer), so I guessed at a different use. The original article states: "...Its author notes [...] the compass, or “south pointer” as the Chinese called it...". Anyway, I'm happy with 22/24 given the number of wild guesses I made, even though it should have been 23 if only Q11 had had a correct answer available. 😉😁 Thank you BP.
