In science, significant advancements were made in fields like astronomy, mathematics, and medicine, with figures such as Euclid, Archimedes, and Hippocrates making notable contributions.
Most mathematical scholars until very recent times.
Euclid discovered a great many geometrical principles in his book Elements. He was also influential in other areas of mathematics, but he is widely considered the father of geometry.
There is limited information on Euclid's personal life, but it is believed he lived in Alexandria and may have studied at Plato's Academy in Athens. The mathematical knowledge of his time greatly influenced his work, particularly the works of Pythagoras and Eudoxus. Euclid's Elements, his most famous work, consolidated and organized existing mathematical knowledge.
Archimedes invented the calculus, the screw, the lever, boyancy, some really big war machines, burning mirrors, block-and-tackle etc. Heron invented the steam turbine. Aristotle invented science. Euclid invented geometry. Eratosthenes, Apollonius, Hipparchus, Zeno of Sidon, all lived and wrote during the Hellenistic age.
Pythagoras influenced many people like, Philolaus, Alcmaeon, Parmenides, Plato, Euclid, Empedocles, Hippasus, and Kepler.
