Hey,
Thanks for asking this question.


I believe that it was Pythagoras who first proposed that the Earth was round sometime around 500 B.C.

As I recall, he based his idea on the fact that he showed the Moon must be round by observing the shape of the terminator as it moved through its orbital cycle.

Pythagoras reasoned that if the Moon was round, then the Earth must be round as well.

Around 350 BC, the great Aristotle declared that the Earth was a sphere.


Hope my answer helps.
