Answer:

A Chinese Geomancer

 Explanation:

The compass was invented in China during the Han Dynasty between the 2nd century BC and 1st century AD where it was called the "south-governor" or "South Pointing Fish" (sīnán 司南). The magnetic compass was not, at first, used for navigation, but for geomancy and fortune-telling by the Chinese.

However, it is believed Flavio Gioia first invented the refined compass, and a monument has been erected in Almafi Italy to honor his invention. The magnetic compass was probably developed by combining the wind rose and the lodestone. From this device, it is supposed the compass rose evolved.

How do you know if an experimental result is acceptable or trustworthy? What gives you confidence that your data are trustworthy
Virty [35]

Explanation:

For an experimental result to be considered acceptable, all relevant variables involved in the experiment must be taken into account, by isolating it, performing it under controlled conditions and modifying the conditions under which it takes place. This, with the objective of excluding alternative explanations in the analisis of the experimental data. Therefore, if these steps are followed appropriately, experimental data are trustworthy. The reliability of the experiment increases when it is replicated by other researchers and the same results are obtained.
