Who invented north pole?
The American explorer Frederick Albert Cook stated that he reached the North Pole in 1908, but his claim is not widely accepted. The conquest of the North Pole is traditionally credited to American Navy engineer Robert Edwin Peary, who claimed to have reached the Pole on April 6, 1909 but Peary's claim remains controversial. The first undisputed sighting of the Pole was on May 12, 1926 by Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen and his American sponsor Lincoln Ellsworth. It is known North Pole fact, that the first man which crossed the Arctic Circle was the Greek geographer and explorer Pytheas of Massilia at around 320 BC. To answer this question, who discovered the North Pole and when, I'd say Pytheas.
Who was the first person to predict tides using a combination of tidal theory and astronomical observations?
Or to phrase the question differently, "Who discovered the correct explanation for the phases of the moon." I too would like to know. Did ancient astronomers know that the moon was reflecting the sun? Did they further discern that the phases were a result of seeing half-illuminated sphere from a different angle. This drawing by Galileo suggests that he had it figured out, but was he the first: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Image:Galileo_moon_phases.jpg

What did Pytheas accomplish?
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.
Who was Pytheas?
Pytheas was a Greek geographer and explorer from the 4th century BCE, best known for his voyages to the northern regions of Europe, including what is now Britain and possibly Scandinavia. He is credited with being one of the earliest Western explorers to document the Arctic and the phenomenon of the midnight sun. His work, particularly the account titled "On the Ocean," provided valuable insights into the geography and cultures of the time, although much of it survives only in fragments through later authors. Pytheas's observations contributed significantly to the understanding of navigation and the ancient world's perception of distant lands.
How did pytheas grow up?
Pytheas was a Greek geographer and explorer from the city of Massalia (modern-day Marseille) in the 4th century BCE. Little is known about his early life, but he likely grew up in a thriving maritime and trading city, which fostered his interest in navigation and exploration. His upbringing in a culturally rich environment may have influenced his later voyages to northern Europe, including Britain and the Arctic regions, where he sought to understand the geography and peoples of those areas.
