Archimedes was the greatest mathematician and engineer of the ancient world. It's the combination of the two that truly set him apart. He was SO CLOSE to inventing calculus as well, but he was killed by a Roman foot soldier during the siege of Syracuse even though they had been ordered not to harm him..
@@midosch7639 The soldier followed orders. They had been instructed to ask, "What is your name?" in Greek (though most common legionaries did not know Greek). The soldier asked the question to Archimedes. Archimedes (busy with his work) said, "Don't disturb me." in Greek. The soldier thought his name was "Dontdisturbme" and killed him.
Archimedes' death ray wasn't a simple mirror. Even concave mirrors would lack the focus and range to track and lit up ships at a distance. He most likely used focus lenses, much like a telescope, on movable gears. Seeing the Mythbusters attempting to replicate that with a hundreds kids holding mirrors was quite funny though.
i wouldnt bother watching mythbusters. those fools won't know anything and neither till we until we go back in time and see every little meticulous detail. these documentaries are good enough
Even then theres no way to make a ship burn with that. It needs a still point, not a ship that goes up and down and back and forth. If you ever used a lens to make a fire you would know that it doesnt burn instantly, it needs to be exactly right on focus and then it still takes a bit. Even if that works once like a miracle, it would never work multiple times. If they ever had this device as the legend has it, it would probably be more blinding than doing any damage.
Thank you very much for this information. I had heard of most of these things, but it's very good to have them all together in one quick video like this. Thank you very much. Well done sir. God bless you.

0:47 The fact that people nowadays still don't know exactly how the Greek Fire was made goes to show how excellent their military was at keeping top secrets.
Catapults are torsion engines and not counterweight though. So trebuchets aren't really catapults. They use the stored springy energy of coils of hair to launch projectiles.
The hand powered trebuchets most certainly evolved from staff slings. Despite the general depiction, I fully believe that the sling David used against Goliath, and indeed all shepherds used in their vocation, were simple thong slings fitted onto the ends of their shepherd staves as opposed to a hand sling. Indeed, the Greeks consistently used staff slings (or "one man trebuchets" to help you visualize it) as part of their missile barrages during engagements. Hand slings, although indeed formidable, are far outpowered by staff slings, and it would take nothing for a shepherd to use that instead. It's incredible how much a simple misunderstanding of what was common for a time can shape a tale thousands of years old into something other than it was.
Several of these are not ancient, not siege weapons, or even neither -starting with the first one, greek fire- but the video is interesting nonetheless.
I've never even hear of the Claw of Archimedes, the Exploding Mill Wheel, and Archimedes' Death Ray, until now. That prehistoric Flame Thrower was cool to discover and learn. Scary how they used the Plague as a weapon. I hope people won't find a way to turn Covid-19 into a weapon. Greek Fire truly is a mystery, it makes me want to discover if it was truly made in Greece or why they called it Greek Fire. But hearing how dangerous it was, perhaps it's better that it remains undiscovered and a secret, for the safety everyone. The same goes for all the other ancient siege weapons.

Siege towers were not used to put soldiers onto the walls (with some very rare exceptions). Ditches, uneven ground and other defenses would make it impossible to drag such huge structures close enough to the walls. They were simply platforms for archers enabling them to shoot down at the defenders.
Right? a Rope! and Tug? and Down she Goes! Had to stay out of that Range! maybe a ramp if the opertunity was there, but these dudes Lived and Died with their Smarts!
You're wrong man... There are several ancient documents and images confirming... The siege tower or mobile tower is a war machine used to reach the defensive walls of a city or fortress during a siege. The siege towers were made of wood, pulled by oxen and with some walls covered with skins to protect themselves from enemy missiles. Inside there were several floors connected to each other with stairs. At the top there was a "drawbridge" which allowed access to the walls.[1] They had a square base and to ensure they were sufficiently stable, not only did they narrow in height, but the area of the upper platform was equal to 1/5 of the base. They could reach considerable heights, as happened during the campaigns of Alexander the Great where one of these reached the measurement of 120 cubits equal to 53 meters. In Roman times we know that in Masada in 74, one of 60 cubits was built, equal to about 26 meters, also equipped with catapults, ballistae and a large ram. Greetings.
Archimedes Death Ray has many factors that make it unlikely to be true. Firstly it was never used again, even though many people were needed to pull off this strategy so therefore new how to use or make it, also the equipment to do it was not destroyed. Historians, scientists engineers have all tried to re-create the Death Ray using technology available at the time, but at best all they can achieve is giving a sailor a nice suntan!!
Caltrops, the simplest and most dangerous of all of them. That's because of the barbs. Hard to get loose without losing your feet. Especially in those times. Patards are still being used in IED's today. Btw, for those 'claws' you need huge counterweights to lift a ship out of the water, a very strong grip and beam, and be able to rotate. I've to see it before I believe it. Same goes for the "death ray". Back then, they didn't have mirrors. Anyway, interesting video. Thanks!
"Back then, they didn't have mirrors." Yes they did. First known mirror was from 6k BC or something. "Btw, for those 'claws'" My guess is that they exploited leverage far more than the vast majority of modern guesswork shows. I can come up with several options that should work at the very least. And if they placed them in optimal positions, they wouldn't need that many for them to be as effective as written, especially as they probably also surprised the enemy.
The battering ram really wasn't so genius. Testaments to siege warfare suggest that the battering ram was tried oftentimes just in case the enemy had forgotten to get a strong door for their fortress. And contrary to popular belief, siege towers were not often used to reach castle walls. They were instead used as an elevated firing platform for archers, and had the stunning speed of 1.25 meters per hour. I argue that the most important siege weapon was the shovel. Sieges did not demand the skill of knights, they demanded the skill of engineers. Things like trebuchets and circumvallations could not be made without the skill of siege engineers in one's attacking force, and it could take months to build a single trebuchet.
The English longbow was effective only in that it was inexpensive and "easy" to make and when unstrung, doubled as a staff. It had less range and power that the recurve bow - and was too large to be used on horseback. As a "projectile weapon" is was very much inferior to the recurve bow. It is also a lesser weapon to the flatbow (Nth America) which is similar part from the "ends" (which do not taper - therefore adding just that little more tension). The main advantage of these masses ranks of longbow archers was not only in the bow - it was essentially in the men themselves - they were also armed with long knives and were more than effective as light infantry - especially effective against heavily armoured "knights" who'd been de-horsed (this was the real decider at Agincourt).
If I remember much like the painting There was very lil info But I think somebody wanted to make a handheld version of it for normal troops The fuckin Greeks were about to set tranches ablaze a couple centuries before the Germans XD
So many issues with this post. The timeframe described is far from "Ancient" (which is a specific historical term used to refer to a time period which, at least in western history, took place prior to the Classical era, or at most, includes the Classical era and ends with the start of the middle ages) - Explosives and Trebuchets are from the Renaissance and later. Circumvallation is not a "weapon", but a strategy of conducting a seige. Claiming it is a "weapon" would be like claiming encirclement or a feint is a "weapon". Finally, both Aristotle's Claw and Archimede's Mirror are almost certainly fake. They have been investigated multiple times, and never shown to have worked. Of the 15 "ancient seige weapons", over 1/3 don't actually fit the category, and they couldn't even bother to make all 15 at least be weapons.
In other words:!!! Greeks invented first the majority of these things… I wonder really.. If these people were United and not fighting each other, what would have been… I believe that by far Greeks are the most smart, and they offered the biggest in human history in every aspect if life..Not only in war, but in piece, in mind, in sciences, in everything..everything we value today comes from them.. Huge respect.. We owe them everything…

As a "projectile weapon" is was very much inferior to the recurve bow.
It is also a lesser weapon to the flatbow (Nth America) which is similar part from the "ends" (which do not taper - therefore adding just that little more tension).
