Archimedes is remembered (among many other things) for the Screw Pump which he invented to pump water out of a ship.
It is an inclined,circular pipe containing a helix with its lower end dipped in the water. Turning the helix/screw around its shaft raises the waterin the pipe, thus liftingit and 'pumping' it to a higher level.
Archimedes took a bowl full of water of known volume and then dipped the irregular shape body. Amount of water fall down is measured and is the volume of that body.
He is only known as Archimedes of Syracuse ( now Sicily).
Yes, Archimedes is best known for his principle that is Archimedes' principle ( or the law of buoyancy )
He does not have a first name or last name, he is simply known as Archimedes or Archimedes of Syracuse!
Archimedes is especially important for his discovery of the relation between the surface and volume of a sphere and its circumscribing cyclinder. He is known for his formulation of a hydrostatic principle (known as Archimedes' principle) and a device for raising water, still used in developing countries, known as the Archimedes screw.

Archimedes showed that the point where the medians are concurrent is the center of gravity of a triangular shape of uniform thickness and density.
