It is actually a Greek word meaning, "I have found it"
It has become famous from its use by the Greek mathematician Archimedes.
The Greek leader at the time asked him to assess whether his crown had been made from all the gold that he had given to the goldsmith to do the job.
Archimedes wasn't sure how to go about solving this, since he couldn't measure the crown's density as the volume was unknown in such an awkward shape. He got into the bath tub and noticed the water level rise.
He suddenly realized he could measure the volume of the crown from the amount of water it displaced, and then calculate what it should weigh if it were made of pure gold.
Archimedes leapt from the tub with great excitement screaming 'Eureka' (I've found it!) upon this discovery.
Funnily enough, today, it is more often associated with the Eureka Stockade event of 19th Century Australian history
