Ptolemy, an influential Greek-Egyptian scholar of the 2nd century AD, significantly impacted history through his contributions to astronomy, geography, and mathematics. His geocentric model of the universe, detailed in the "Almagest," dominated Western astronomical thought for over a millennium until the Copernican revolution. Additionally, his work "Geographia" laid the groundwork for modern cartography by introducing a systematic approach to mapping the world. Ptolemy's ideas shaped scientific inquiry and exploration during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, influencing both navigation and the understanding of the cosmos.
