Best Answer

Gerhard Kremer, also known as Geradus Mercator (it was fashionable to have a Latin nickname in the 16'th Century), produced his first map in 1537.

Ptolomy, who liked to call himself Claudius Ptolemaeus, did his thing in the 2'nd century - so, somewhere between 100 and 200 A.D.

Soooo... Ptolomy wins!! by 14 centuries !!!!

Ptolemy belonged to the Roman Empire but Mercator was one of the Portuguese navigators of the Middle Ages, a lot later.
