1. When was the first recorded sailing of a submarine boat?

2. Where is the oldest recorded production of alcohol?
1 THAT'S the Greeks, isn't it?
2 Isn't there some prehistoric evidence that early man liked a stiffener before the hunt or something? It's either that or whoever sold the drink to those Greek submariners.

Number 1 is right, The Greeks of Toledo produced a craft that could bring two men and a naked flame underwater and resurface without touching the water.

Need to get a better answer for 2.
