Archimedes lived in syracuse which is a small island near the country of italy. 287 BC  --212 BCThis man is ranked by historians with Sir Issac Newton and Carl Friedrich Gauss as one of the greatest mathmaticians of all time. His greatest achievemnet was the archimedes sphere and when he died the roman general Marcus Claudius Marcellus ,(ca. 268–208 BC), inscribed the sphere on his tombstone (the archimedes spere is a sphere with a cylinder inside it.)
