Claudius Ptolemy was famous as an ancient scholar. He was a Roman of Greek origin, living and working in Alexandria. He was a mathematician, astronomer and geographer. He is best known for his Algemest, a writing on astronomy and for his geography.
Which of these people is not famous historian
The most famous early historian on the subject is Edward Gibbon who lived in the 18th century and who wrote the still-famous History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire.
Claudius was know for taking the advise of freedmen and elevating them to high positions. He is also the emperor that officially annexed Britain.
The roadway, referred to as the Appian Way (Via Appia), was built in the 3rd and 4th centuries BC as a military supply line across the Pontine marshes. The first section was completed between Rome and Capua in 312 BC.
Claudius was Roman Emperor, never Roman King. The Romans hated the idea of being ruled by a king.
Nero did not kill Claudius. Suspicions that Claudius was murdered fell on his wife, Agrippina the Younger, Nero's mother. However, this appears to have been rumour and not all Roman writers agreed with it. Seneca the younger, the famous Roman philosopher, said that Claudius died of natural causes. Josephus, the Roman-Jewish historian, mentioned rumours that he was poisoned. There are even discrepancies in the sources as to where he died, with Suetonius saying that Claudius died in Rome and Tacitus saying that he died in Sinuessa (near Naples). There are also different versions of the alleged murder. In one Claudius recovered and was poisoned again. In another he died slowly, after long suffering. There are modern historians who doubt this allegation. Claudius may have simply died of illness or old age (he was 64 and life expectancy was lower in those days). Claudius had been seriously ill the year before. The alleged motivation was Agrippina's wish to have her son Nero succeed him.
Polybius was a Greek historian.
