Archimedes was the greatest mathematician and engineer of the ancient world. It's the combination of the two that truly set him apart. He was SO CLOSE to inventing calculus as well, but he was killed by a Roman foot soldier during the siege of Syracuse even though they had been ordered not to harm him..

Archimedes' death ray wasn't a simple mirror. Even concave mirrors would lack the focus and range to track and lit up ships at a distance. He most likely used focus lenses, much like a telescope, on movable gears. Seeing the Mythbusters attempting to replicate that with a hundreds kids holding mirrors was quite funny though.
