The Story of the Archimedes Palimpsest to 2000 (Part 3/3)

Thanks for posting this. Very interesting! It's such a tragedy that so many ancient texts have been lost - it makes one weep to think of the treasures that have been lost, never to be seen again. This one is such a fantastic find.

Great hey, science is so unbelievable. I don't understand people who claim to have this book, where did they get it if its in this state and not finished.

How do they preserve this! It is awesome how they recover his palimpsests and treatises and display them under museum glass. Cool videos, I've seen every one of them. Archimedes is my topic for a school project and this has helped a lot.
