the will of the gods 203 00:11:35,949 --> 00:11:38,589 Greek scholars were open to other 204 00:11:38,589 --> 00:11:41,319 explanations of the world they tried to 205 00:11:41,319 --> 00:11:43,839 understand the world by reflecting upon 206 00:11:43,839 --> 00:11:50,139 it the first step was a thorough 207 00:11:50,139 --> 00:11:55,389 observation of nature Greek researchers 208 00:11:55,389 --> 00:11:57,249 drew conclusions from the mating 209 00:11:57,249 --> 00:11:59,829 behavior of bees or measure the 210 00:11:59,829 --> 00:12:01,509 circumference of the earth with 211 00:12:01,509

such as a machine 218 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,090 for drawing lots for the allocation of 219 00:12:30,090 --> 00:12:34,140 official positions the scholars were no 220 00:12:34,140 --> 00:12:36,390 longer satisfied with stories of the 221 00:12:36,390 --> 00:12:39,210 gods they wanted to identify cause and 222 00:12:39,210 --> 00:12:47,040 effect and to record them as laws these 223 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,430 inquiring minds called themselves 224 00:12:49,430 --> 00:12:53,160 philosophers Friends of wisdom they are 225 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:57,810 regarded as the founders of science from 226 00:12:57,810 --> 00:13:00,720 the 6th century BC onwards their will to 227 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:05,420 understand spread through all of Greece 228 00:13:05,690 --> 00:13:08,700 schools of philosophy the forerunners of 229 00:13:08,700 --> 00:13:11,370 today's research centers sprang up like 230 00:13:11,370 --> 00:13:14,400 temples of learning 231 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:17,610 [Music] 232 00:13:17,970 --> 00:13:21,940 in the 16th century Rome returned to the 233 00:13:21,940 --> 00:13:25,000 ideas of antiquity pope julius ii 234 00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,340 celebrated the great philosophers in a 235 00:13:27,340 --> 00:13:32,950 fresco Raphael's School of Athens one of 236 00:13:32,950 --> 00:13:35,680 them is Socrates who tormented the 237 00:13:35,680 --> 00:13:38,020 Athenians with uncomfortable questions 238 00:13:38,020 --> 00:13:42,240 and declared I know that I know nothing 239 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,920 white-bearded Plato established the 240 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,950 world's first school of philosophy its 241 00:13:47,950 --> 00:13:50,340 central concern was the search for truth 242 00:13:50,340 --> 00:13:53,410 beside him is his pupil Aristotle who 243 00:13:53,410 --> 00:13:55,740 invented systematic logic 244 00:13:55,740 --> 00:13:58,700 [Music] 245 00:13:58,700 --> 00:14:02,580 then there's Diogenes famous even though 246 00:14:02,580 --> 00:14:08,250 little is known of it and the great 247 00:14:08,250 --> 00:14:11,520 Archimedes already famous during his 248 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:16,280 lifetime for his scientific ingenuity 249 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:21,210 Archimedes reputation won him a very 250 00:14:21,210 --> 00:14:23,820 special assignment he had to discover 251 00:14:23,820 --> 00:14:26,400 whether a royal crown was made of pure 252 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:28,920 gold or had been alloyed with some 253 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:34,950 cheaper metal it was a challenging task 254 00:14:34,950 --> 00:14:37,380 as the precious crown could not be 255 00:14:37,380 --> 00:14:46,830 damaged in any way the idea that saved 256 00:14:46,830 --> 00:14:51,840 Archimedes came to him in the barn the 257 00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,780 tub was full and when he got in it began 258 00:14:54,780 --> 00:14:56,550 to overflow 259 00:14:56,550 --> 00:15:03,790 [Music] 260 00:15:05,329 --> 00:15:08,069 Archimedes realized that the volume of 261 00:15:08,069 --> 00:15:10,680 the water that had overflowed Khorasan 262 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:13,139 did approximately to the volume of his 263 00:15:13,139 --> 00:15:19,350 own body he concluded that the volume of 264 00:15:19,350 --> 00:15:21,930 bodies and even their density could be 265 00:15:21,930 --> 00:15:24,389 calculated by the volume of water they 266 00:15:24,389 --> 00:15:26,040 displaced 267 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:30,270 [Music] 268 00:15:30,270 --> 00:15:32,640 he realized that he could use the water 269 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:34,770 method to determine mathematically 270 00:15:34,770 --> 00:15:39,800 whether or not the cran was of pure gold 271 00:15:40,050 --> 00:15:42,820 he observed that an object with a 272 00:15:42,820 --> 00:15:44,670 density lower than that of water 273 00:15:44,670 --> 00:15:47,500 displaced more liquid than an object 274 00:15:47,500 --> 00:15:50,230 with a higher density the comparison 275 00:15:50,230 --> 00:15:52,570 only worked however if the two objects 276 00:15:52,570 --> 00:15:57,730 were of the same weight it is said the 277 00:15:57,730 --> 00:15:59,650 dark immediate was so delighted by his 278 00:15:59,650 --> 00:16:03,010 discovery that he cried Eureka I found 279 00:16:03,010 --> 00:16:07,770 it and ran out naked into the street 280 00:16:08,250 --> 00:16:11,790 so Archimedes took the crown and the 281 00:16:11,790 --> 00:16:14,910 lump of pure gold of the same weight if 282 00:16:14,910 --> 00:16:17,160 the crown was a pure gold it would 283 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,620 displace the same amount of water as the 284 00:16:19,620 --> 00:16:20,870 lump of gold 285 00:16:20,870 --> 00:16:23,690 however the crown displaced far more 286 00:16:23,690 --> 00:16:28,160 proving it was not pure gold 287 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:30,680 this was not the only problem solved by 288 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,829 the ingenious Archimedes to this day he 289 00:16:33,829 --> 00:16:36,050 is regarded as one of the best minds of 290 00:16:36,050 --> 00:16:38,810 all time and his Archimedean principle 291 00:16:38,810 --> 00:16:43,819 still stands his fellow scholars were 292 00:16:43,819 --> 00:16:46,160 not to be outdone they designed the 293 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:48,529 first world map with longitude and 294 00:16:48,529 --> 00:16:49,400 latitude 295 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:54,010

planets and other 299 00:17:01,340 --> 00:17:04,699 celestial bodies in relation to it the 300 00:17:04,699 --> 00:17:06,290 list also includes the first 301 00:17:06,290 --> 00:17:08,900 steam-powered machine and the invention 302 00:17:08,900 --> 00:17:13,099 of the water pump in addition the Greeks 303 00:17:13,099 --> 00:17:15,349 developed equipment such as the catapult 304 00:17:15,349 --> 00:17:19,449 and protective vests for their soldiers 305 00:17:19,449 --> 00:17:22,280 Archimedes formulated the law of the 306 00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:24,740 lever laying the foundations for the 307 00:17:24,740 --> 00:17:28,250 development of mechanics we even know 308 00:17:28,250 --> 00:17:30,680 disciplines such as geometry and algebra 309 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:37,400

would 324 00:18:20,340 --> 00:18:24,470 radically change the lives of the Greeks 325 00:18:24,740 --> 00:18:28,560 an estimated 80,000 Athenians witnessed 326 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:32,940 a political

democracy was born from such a crisis 358 00:20:35,620 --> 00:20:38,299 at first the Greeks fought only one 359 00:20:38,299 --> 00:20:40,730 another but then they had to defend 360 00:20:40,730 -->
