; Latin: Claudius Ptolemaeus; c. AD 100 – c. 170)[2] was a Greek mathematician, astronomer, geographer and astrologer. He lived in the city of Alexandria in the Roman province of Egypt, under the rule of the Roman Empire,[3] had a Latin name, which several historians have taken to imply he was also a Roman citizen,[4] cited Greek philosophers, and used Babylonian observations and Babylonian lunar theory. The
14th-century astronomer Theodore Meliteniotes gave his birthplace as the prominent Greek city Ptolemais Hermio in the Thebaid . This attestation is quite late, however, and there is no other evidence to confirm or contradict it.[5] He died in Alexandria around AD 168.[6
