Worcester is believed to have been invented by the Greek mathematician Archytas around 4,000 BC. The Greeks used worms in many places. Archimedes (28-2212 BC) invented a water pump using a worm. This machine is called the Archimedean Screw.

The machine inserts a screwdriver into a hole in the pipe. The hose is immersed in a tank, and when the screw is turned from above, the water slowly rises up the hose and flows into the field through a connecting waterway.

Thanks to the use of worm gear, you can no longer drive like water. Just turn the worm from the top. The Greeks also invented screw presses. It’s like extracting wine from a grape. Olive oil was extracted from olives.
