In this thread one can post any question dealing with historic science, and anyone can answer it, goal is to have one question asked at a time, nobody post a question until someone correctly answers the previous one, author is also responsible for notifying that someone answered their question right. Other then that, just keep asking and answering questions, only rules to asking are that it has to be historical (before second half of 20'th century), it has to be on history of science, and lastly one person can not post 2 answers in a row.
The winner will get a title and lots of props from the rest of the people who participate
, unless you have a distinguished title, in which case you only get props (sorry mods and admins). But really it's all for fun
First Queston:
In ancient egypt, name the device used to measure the height of the river.
we will use kudos as currency... first one to get 1000 kudos is the winner
this is a question for 50 kudos
note, for those asking questions, for difficulty of the question, you can set the right answer reward to range from 20 to 100 kudos.
I will keep the score and upon successful answers will post who and how many kudos they have
