When the sun was directly overhead Syene why was is not directly overhead in Alexandria?
The Sun passes nearly overhead at Syene (Aswan) in latitude 24.1 degrees on June 21, but Alexandria is at latitude 31.1 degrees, which is 7 degrees more, therefore the Sun misses going overhead by about 7 degrees. This is because earth's surface is curved (the world is spherical). The ancient Greeks knew this and they also knew the distance from Alexandria to Syene, and they multiplied the distance by 360 / 7 to give an estimate of the Earth's circumference that was surprisingly accurate.
