Galileo Galilee proved that the earth is round by earths shadow on the moon.
Pythagoras stated the earth was round

It's not, the earth is round.
Galileo did not prove that Earth was not flat (It had already been agreed that it was round). Galileo invented the telescope and used it to prove that there were objects which did not orbit the Earth, supporting Copernicus' Heliocentric model for the universe. The Earth was known to be round by the ancient Greeks, but I do not who it found out initially (sorry).
The idea of a round Earth appears to have originated in Greek Philosophy. Aristotle provided the first evidence of a round Earth, noting that explorers traveling south saw southern constellations rise higher above the horizon and that Earth cast a round shadow on the moon. Eratosthenes used the angle of sunlight at different latitudes to estimate Earth's circumference with surprising accuracy.
he found out the earth was round when he studied geography
Christopher Columbus found that the Earth was round in the early 1860's.

Aristotle is the one who found the earth was round.

The Earth never became round. It has always been round in shape since it was formed at the beginning of time.
The Gupta Empire astronomers proved the earth was round by studying the moon during a lunar eclipse. They noticed that the earths shadow on the moon was round, meaning that the earth itself was round.
The Earth moves around the sun.
