The other night I was in a pub that has been converted from a disused church, they have kept the stained glass windows. One of the windows depicts an angel telling Joseph, the good news, that his fiancée is up the duff, in the background is a carpenter's bench with a vice. I know that about 0 AD they would have known about screw threads from Archimedes's screws, but had they developed a female screw thread and all the engineering possibilities (as well as the vice) that this implies?
