Best Answer

Pytheas was a Greek explorer who added greatly to the geographic knowledge of the world at the time, specifically with regard to the the British Isles. Some believe that he named Britain. His latitude measurements and descriptions of his exploration of the north influenced others significantly, although the book he published of his writings seems to be lost. We know of it through the writings of others.
