What geometer was born in Turkey?
I believe the following geometers were born in turkey; Thales of Miletus (c. 630-c 550) Anaximander of Miletus (c. 610-c. 547) Anaximenes of Miletus (fl. c. 546))
Miletus was a town in the area where today Turkey is. But it is wrong to say that Anaximander was born in Turkey because we mix ancient time and modern space. It is correct to say that Asia Minor, which today is a part of Turkey, was the birthplace of Apollonius born in Perga , Aytolycus born in Pitane , Hipparchus born in Nicaea . But the most famous geometer, perhaps, is Thales of Miletus.
