How did ancient people know that the earth was round?
In: 37
The idea that the earth is flat is kind of weird if you think about it. The earth is self evidently round. The horizon alone is proof of it. On top of that even the simplest of maths and scientific method (such as practiced by Archimedes and Pythagoras) makes it very very obvious. The only people who have ever believed the earth was flat were the wilfully ignorant.
