Determined the Earth was round
Estimated its approximate size
Some advanced idea that Earth @ Sun
Built steam engines, accurate clocks
One (Archimedes) believed fossils to be remains of ancient animals

to 1500s
Double, double, toil and trouble

Wool of bat and tounge of dog…
For a charm of powerful trouble
Like a hellbroth boil and bubble
