  • Australian Lighthouses by Ian Arthur
    1 Australian Lighthouses By Ian Arthur The idea of writing an article on lighthouses for ASHET News originated in my reading a paper in the journal of the Society for the History of Technology, based in America. The paper by Michael Brian Schiffer is titled The Electric Lighthouse in the Nineteenth Century: Aid to Navigation and Political Technology and is published in the Volume 46 Number 2, April 2005 edition of the Society’s journal Technology and Culture. The paper mentions that the second Macquarie Lighthouse in Australia, when it opened in 1883, had the most powerful electric light in the world. This led me to read more about lighthouses in Australia, and this article is the result. It is timely, since the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA), responsible for providing aids to ocean and coastal navigation in Australia, celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2015, and 2018 will be the 200th anniversary of the opening of the first Australian lighthouse, the Macquarie Lighthouse on South Head in Sydney. The earliest lighthouses The first authenticated record of a lighthouse is that of the Pharos of Alex- andria, one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world. It was built around 280 BC on the island of Pharos at the entrance to the port of Alexandria. It was large even by modern standards, around 120 m high, built of stone faced with marble. At the top was a wood fired beacon that could be seen under good conditions 30 miles out to sea. The Romans and the Phoenicians built many fire-beacons and a few lighthouses wherever they traded regularly, at locations reaching from the Eastern Mediterranean and the Black Sea to the Atlantic coast of Spain and to Britain.
