There are a number of liquids that have a density maximum in the liquid phase. The most celebrated is that of [[water]], which was first reported in 1792<ref>[http://dx.doi.org/10.1098/rstl.1792.0026 Charles Blagden and George Gilpin "Supplementary Report on the Best Method of Proportioning the Excise upon Spirituous Liquors", Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London '''82''' pp. 425-455 (1792)]</ref>. However, liquid [[helium]] 4 also has a maximum at 2.18 K (Ref. ??), liquid [[gallium]] at ??K (Ref. ??), [[silica]] at ??K (Ref. ??),  [[tellurium]] (Ref. <ref>[http://dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.65.014105 Nobumasa Funamori and Kazuhiko Tsuji "Structural transformation of liquid tellurium at high pressures and temperatures", Physical Review B '''65''' 014105 (2001)]</ref>), and [[germanium]] at ?? (Ref. ??).  [[Bismuth]]  appears not to have a density maximum within the liquid phase, however the "low temperature" liquid does appear to be denser than the "high temperature" solid (Ref. <ref>[http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10740-005-0075-7 S.
