The so-called “Baghdad battery” is believed to be from the Sassanian Era, roughly 224 - 651 AD. The jar was found in Khujut Rabu just outside Baghdad and is composed of a clay jar with a stopper made of asphalt. Sticking through the asphalt is an iron rod surrounded by a copper cylinder. The so-called “Baghdad battery” is not really a battery at all. We know this because it bears a very close resemblance to objects with an identifiable purpose found by a team of archaeologists from the University of Michigan in 1930 at the site of Seleukia, not far from Baghdad. The objects found at Seleukia look almost just like the so-called “Baghdad battery,” but we know they were, in fact, used to hold papyrus scrolls because they all contained remnants of papyrus scrolls when they were excavated. The scroll-holders from Seleukia consist of a metal rod that the scroll could be wrapped around and a tube inside a ceramic pot that the scroll to be slid inside for protection. Most likely, the so-called “Baghdad battery” is just a scroll container. The scroll was meant to be wrapped around the iron rod, slid inside the copper tube, and then slipped inside the ceramic container, which could then be sealed to protect the scroll inside. The acidic residue on the inside of the container most likely comes from the papyrus or parchment of the scroll that the pot once contained, since papyrus and parchment are both slightly acidic. Eventually, the scroll decomposed, leaving the acidic residue behind.
Despite being the truth, it actually sounds even crazier than some ancient guy constructing a useless battery as a proof of concept. I mean, that's one convoluted way to store scrolls.

Okay, this was a solid take on the Baghdad battery i've not seen before. Also, your argument that perhaps the metals were placed in the wine to add flavor or healing properties....is not crazy. Copper, at the time, was known as "fire metal" and had symbolic importance.
What is your source to claim that copper was known as "fire metal" at that time and in that region? And how exactly would that add flavor or "healing properties" in wine or vinegar? That makes no sense at all.

There's a difference between making something and inventing something, even tho they made a rudimentary battery, there's no evidence that they did it because they knew it was what we consider today to be a battery, but having said that, today it would be a case for a nobel prize of science, the guys that won the nobel prize for discovering micro waves (not the machine but the electromagnetic waves) didn't knew what they were experiencing, just that something funny happened to their food when next to some antennas they were working.
