The greeks knew hollow things made of metal would float. Heck, toss a metal cooking pot in the water and watch it float. It doesn't take much imagination or brilliance to figure it out.3) DnD is not a mideval world! It has some medival trappings, but its not a mideval world. First, in the "standard" DnD world, the AVERAGE person is at least semi literate... this wasn't true in most of the "medival" world. Second, magic, the thought processes of different races (Dwarves and gnomes technologicly, elves spiritualy and magicly, etc etc), the proven existance of gods, the undead and other planes, etc etc... have so altered the way the world 'is' that you can't compare it to any time in earth history. Just because one thing did not happen in the mideval world on earth doesn't mean it wouldn't in a DnD world, and the inverse is also true... I mean, heck, we are asked to belive that the average DnD world has basicly held constant at its level of technology for hundreds and thousands of years... this is not anything LIKE how it happened in the real world.</blockquote>
