Difficult. The compass was probably invented during the Qin Dynasty. Gun powder was invented during the Warring States period. Printing during the Tang Dynasty.
Maybe the Han Dynasty (approx. 202 B. C. - A. D. 220) :
"Silk Road
Papermaking
Iron technology (cast iron) plowshares;Moldboard plow (kuan)
Glazed pottery
Wheelbarrow
Seismograph (Chang Heng)
Compass
Ship's rudder
Stirrups
Drawloom weaving
Embroidery for decorating garments
Hot Air Balloon
Chinese Examination System"
