No to all. Maybe it's usefull to think about what word should be filled in between 'He got in.' and 'He was right.' |

So he is a human character in Greek mythology? did he perform something that would be considered supernatural? Did he interact with a relevant god? Could a human of today raise the item? can spatial dimensions of the item be measured? |

Is it Archimedes while taking a bath, he noticed that the level of the water rose as he got in... And he could use this principle in density and buoyancy? |

Did Archimedes actually appear in mythology? I find this surprising. |
