Aug 2020) Ptolemy's Geography is the only book on cartography to have survived from the classical period and one of the most influential scientific works of all time. Written in the second century AD, for more than fifteen centuries it was the most detailed topography of Europe and Asia available and the best reference on how to gather data and draw maps. Ptolemy championed the use of astronomical observation and applied mathematics in determining geographical locations. But more importantly, he introduced the practice of writing down coordinates of latitude and longitude for every feature drawn on a world map, so that someone else possessing only the text of the Geography could reproduce Ptolemy's map at any time, in whole or in part, at any scale. Here Berggren and Jones render an exemplary translation of the Geography and provide a thorough introduction, which treats the historical and technical background of Ptolemy's work, the contents of the Geography, and the later history of the work In English Agrippa;Aristotle;Babylon;Baktra;Baetis;Canopus;Carthage;Diller;Diogenes;Dioskoros;Ekbatana;Erasmus Ganges Hebrides Heron Imaos Issos Julius Maternus Kouroula Londinium Madaba mosaic Marcianus Nasamones Nobbe Pachynus Pappus Ravenna Rome Seleucia Tacitus Theophilos Werner Zeugma graticule horizon league optics parasang precession satrapies zodiac SCIENCE / History bisacsh Cartography Greece Early works to 1800 Geography, Ancient Berggren, J.
