    2. Archimedes history. Archimedes had a father who’s name was Phidias. It is believed Phidias could have been related to Hieron the 2nd the king of Syracuse. It is not known if Phidias was married or had any children.

    No Offence but who ever wrote this is a dumb ass! It clearly states that Phidias is Achimedes father, and in the last sentense above it says, ' It is not known if Phidias was married or had kids' Obviously he had a kid!
