An archaeologist wants to determine the density of an ancient, intricately carved gold pendant.

Because the pendant has a highly irregular and detailed surface, they cannot calculate its volume by measuring its physical dimensions with a ruler or calipers.

An irregular gold pendant suspended by a thread above a water-filled displacement can, with a measuring cylinder placed under the spout.

Describe how the archaeologist could accurately measure the volume of this irregular gold pendant.
