Legend has it that Archimedes, born in the year 287 B.C., made his discovery while sitting in the bathtub and celebrated the revelation by running through the streets proclaiming, "Eureka, eureka!"
The mathematician's discovery was said to have occurred one week before the start of summer, the date known today as June 14.
The National Day Calendar said the holiday is meant to spark bath time creativity in children and adults alike.
