"This is the greatest math site ever. Really, it has no equal. Want to multiply your fun on the Net–as far as arithmetic, geometry, algebra, trigonometry, or calculus goes? You can learn about tessellations and all kinds of other really neat math stuff here, including puzzles and math tricks. There are no limits to what you can do at Cool Math–or are there? See for yourself! We'd add more, but we don't want to take away the surprise." Go To Website - Secrets of the Lost Empires: Medieval Siege
- England's Edward I is said to have used a fearsome machine, called "Warwolf," to batter his enemies' castle walls into rubble. Historians think Warwolf was a wooden trebuchet, a missile-throwing siege weapon that dominated siege warfare until cannons were invented. In the Scottish countryside, teams build two trebuchet designs side by side, using medieval building techniques. Will either, or both, be capable of destroying a model castle wall at a distance of 200 yards (182 meters)? Check out Nova's web site and see! Go To Website
