Geography

Hipparchus (190-120 B.C.) was perhaps the greatest of the Greek astronomers who devised a method of locating geographical positions by means of latitudes and longitudes. In addition, Ptolemy (2nd century A.D.) was a Greek astronomer and mathematician who lived and worked in Egypt. He wrote the book Geographic that charts all the places of the world as known to them at that time. His works, which employed a system of latitudes and longitudes, influenced mapmakers for hundreds of years. He was a cartographer and he evolved the science of map-making.
