Archimedes is often credited with inventing the catapult around 200BC Catapult Engineering The History Archimedes is often credited with inventing the catapult around 200BC He invented the screw to remove water in a ship’s hull. He measured the mass per volume of the king’s gold crown. “Give me a lever long enough and a place to mount a fulcrum, a place to stand and I will move the earth.” Build-It-Yourself.com
