Dr. Bergmann's Talk

Heiberg had discovered the oldest surviving
manuscript containing seven treatises of
Archimedes including the only Greek version of
‘On Floating Bodies’
and two previously unknown treatises
‘The Stomachion’
‘The Method of Mechanical Thoerems’
relying only on a magnifying glass,
Heiberg transcribed the faint
Archimedes script in the Palimpsest
