Who Invented The Water Displacement Method

Archimedes, greek philosopher. Long story short, king of the time asked archimedes to find out if a crown made for him was actually made out of gold or iron. Since they have different density they would have different water displacement. He figures it out while sitting down in a tub full of water and noticed that water spilled out water depending on the mass not weight of an object.

Archimedes. He was in his bathtub one day and figured out that when he got deeper into the tub, more water was displaced. He ran outside because he was so happy and yelled EUREKA!!! Naked I front of everybody. Thus water displacement was born.
