Best Answer

When the Romans attacked Syracuse, the troops were told to take Archimedes alive. As they invaded the city, troops were sent out to raid and find the scientist. As legend has it, when Archimedes was found, he was involved in some task and refused to be interrupted. When the soldier who found him became impatient, he killed Archimedes
