There's no universally accepted "Father of Arithmetic" but there are two valid Greek candidates- Archimedes, a scientist, astronomer and mathematician born in Syracuse (Sicily) around 282 BC. His theorems and proofs are the basis of modern calculus. He studied the math behind simple machines and the force of buoyancy.- Euclid, said to be the "Father of Geometry." He lived in Alexandria circa 300 BC and wrote the 13-volume treatise "Elements" (Stoicheia), which contains many of the geometric and mathematical proofs that are still taught today.
