Submitted by: AdministratorHipparchus (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.
