Medieval people thinking the Earth was flat is a myth that was made up during the Age of Enlightenment.

That is a myth that has been debunked a long time ago. In fact, the Earth being round was discovered in antiquity and Eratosthenes measured the Earth’s circumference almost accurately in about 240 BC.
