Archimedes is credited with discovering how to measure the volume of irregular objects by using water displacement. This method allowed him to determine the volume of an object by measuring the amount of water it displaced when submerged in a container. The famous story goes that he made this discovery while taking a bath, leading to his exclamation "Eureka!" which means "I have found it" in Greek.
