Archimedes died when a Roman named Marcus invaded Syracuse. He was working a proof with a diagram of a circle whena soilder told him to get up and leave. Archimedes only asked for more time to solve the proof. This enraged the soilder and so the soilder killed him. Another acount states that Archimedes told the soilder not to step on his diagram and then the soilder became angry and killed him.
