Most people will tell you that Columbus' voyages proved it, but the truth is, we already had a pretty good idea the earth was round by 1492. Actually, Aristotle, an ancient Greek thinker, proved it using geometry by digging holes at different latitudes on the same day of the year and measuring shadows. Going into the Age of Discovery, the whole "flat earth" notion was more of a misconception than a belief.
