Some scientists and mathematicians in the Ancient world were not as good as Archimedes.Who is Archimedes?You are probably wondering who is he.He was a mathematician and an inventor in the Ancient Greek days.He was the last Greek mathematician.Not only was he known as the wise one,but he was also known as the master too.
Born in Syracuse,Sicily,2086 B.C,he probably got his interest of maths from his father,Phidias.His father was an astronomer,a scientific studier of heavenly bodies.Some days he was so interested in trying to solve mathematical problems,that he may have forgotten to eat!!I would not want to be him!
He invented the Claw,the ship shaking construction.It was invented in 2014 B.C.It was useful for warding off ships.The right arm was used to lift,sink and drop on an attacking ship with a large hook.It was controlled by a pulley system and also two poles.It’s also used to pick up toys in stuff toy machines.FUN!!!!
