Weighing scale

What is the function of the artifact?:
It is to weigh the weight of other objects.
Identify and explain 3 differences to its modern day version.
- We have a digital weighing scale which is much more accurate than the olden days’ weighing scale.
- We need to have another weight at the side to be able to compare.
- To use that, you have to bring the weights around and will take a longer time to get your results, while the modern day weighing scale do not have to bring any weights around and the results are instant.
