Anaximander was an Ancient Greek philosopher who was alive from 610 – 545 BC. Alive in a time well before Socrates, Anaximander was well-versed in a variety of topics and maps in particular fascinated him. In fact, he was the first to have created a map in Ancient Greece. Not only that, but he was the first to have ever included the lines of latitude and longitude, a convention that we use today to help show the exact location of everything on the map. Anaximander was a student of the philosopher Thales, and he based his maps on his belief that the earth was cylindrical, an idea that wasn’t common during his time. He spent much of his time observing the stars in the sky, a practice which also impacted his fascination with maps.
