The late great Carl Sagan had a very good explanation of how the ancient Greeks figured out that the Earth was round in his book Cosmos (companion to the identically named TV series).

Whenever I encounter the idea that Europeans invariably thought the Earth was flat, my mind goes back to that Bugs Bunny cartoon where Columbus is debating if the Earth really ever was flat or round.

Guess which reference is more popular when trying to figure out belief systems in the Middle Ages? (Me, being excessively sarcastic.)
