Extractions: Sabia que . . . . . Curiosidades históricas ... O primeiro telescópio foi posto em prática por Galileu em 1609. Era um simples refractor. ... A Terra tem o nome da deusa Romana da terra, Terra. Muitas línguas ainda hoje utilizam esse nome (tais como o português, o espanhol, o francês, etc.). ... O tamanho e a forma das três Pirâmides de Gizé correspondem à posição e magnitude das três estrelas na cintura da constelação de Oríon? Aparenta que os egípcios construíram as Pirâmides com base neste facto, pois a posição do Nilo em relação às Pirâmides é relativamente a mesma como a posição da Via Láctea em relação às três estrelas da cintura de Oríon. ... Incidentalmente, a entrada da Grande Pirâmide aponta para a estrela Thuban, em Dragão, que era a estrela Polar nessa altura (pois a estrela "moveu-se" devido à precessão)? O aparecimento da estrela dentro da Pirâmide é provavelmente uma coincidência, pois muitas das nossas constelações são de origem greco-romana, e outras vezes árabe. ... Se se olhasse uma certa secção na Grande Pirâmide de Gizé, e depois se pusesse um ponto em cada intersecção das passagens dentro da estrutura, e depois juntasse os respectivos pontos, a figura criada seria extremamente parecida com a constelação Dragão. Coincidência?

Extractions: "Certains instruments inventés par raison géométrique et mécanique, pour les mesures et fondements desquels pour la plupart se servent les inventions suivantes en cette oeuvre." Note sur la vis. On attribue l'invention de la vis à Archytas de Tarentum (environ 400 avant J.C.). Les premières vis sont utilisées pour les presses: elles sont un moyen d'exercer une force très intense et assurent l'irréversibilité du mouvement. Ces avantages sont bien connus de Besson qui écrit (cf. texte car il est en besogne souvent des machines suivantes: où il se faut aider de la vis comme pour les engins à lever et à tirer fardeaux, et est l'usage fort utile car jamais la vis ne retourne et a une force incroyable. ce que montre assez l'usage quotidien ". On distingue par ailleurs la vis sans fin, lorsque la vis agit sur les dents d'une roue à axe perpendiculaire à celui de la vis afin de lui transmettre un mouvement de rotation, et la vis d'Archimède lorsque la vis permet le transport de matériaux plus ou moins liquides.
The Hindu : Crazy About Kites

http://www.hinduonnet.com/thehindu/yw/2002/10/19/stories/2002101900160200.htm

Extractions: A favourite pastime. Kite flying began a very long time ago, most probably around 400 B.C. in Greece, though it is likely that the orient was familiar with the pastime even prior to this. Archytas, of Tarentum, in Greece, is believed to be the inventor of the kite. The earliest Chinese kite flying was around 200 B.C., when the emperor Han Kao Chi had a kite flown and used the string to estimate the distance to an enemy fort wall. A tunnel was then dug, and the enemy conquered.

3.2 Concept Of Place
The oldest known theorising about 'place' is the treatise of archytas ofTarentum, a Pythagorean thinker who lived in the Fourth Century BC.
http://ethesis.helsinki.fi/julkaisut/mat/maant/pg/lipsanen/032.html

Extractions: The concept of 'place' as approached by a strictly scientific manner could be reduced to a mere spatial concept. It would thus mean 'a location in space'. This is for instance basically the meaning that Georg Henrik von Wright ( ) gives to it in his 'logic of place'. He investigates the differencies between modal concepts in temporal and spatial systems of formal logic, and founds his system of spatial logic on modal concepts of 'nearby', 'somewhere', and 'somewhere else' ( von Wright 1983 : 134). Ramon Jansana ( ) has developed von Wright's system later by adding to it the aspect of distance. Study of 'place' in logic resembles closely the use of 'place' in geographical studies where the geographical information system (GIS) is used. In Finnish, GIS is even translated as 'paikkatietojärjestelmä' meaning 'system of place data'! The logical aspects of place were examined already by the early Greek philosophers. In his essay about the 'Anaximander fragment'probably the oldest remaining piece of Western thinkingMartin Heidegger ( : 16) reminds us of the importance of examining early philosophical thinking. According to him, to translate an early fragment into another language one has to first translate oneself into what the fragment says (

Extractions: The purpose of this letter is to trace the continuous line(s) teacher to student who became teacher to student... from Thales to Alexander the Great and thereby to the Ptolemy Dynasty and to Queen Cleopatra in an unbroken line of appreciation for ancient mysteries and learning passed down from generation to generation for 600 years among these Greek world figures and to see their connections to the more ancient Egypt.

Extractions: The research notebook of a beleaguered hack. Main July 06, 2002 Struik: A Concise History of Mathematics: Greece As the Mediterranean basin transitioned from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age there were enormous economic and political changes. Iron's introduction changed warfare but also cheapened production, causing a surplus, and allowing more people to be involved in public life. Additionally the introduction of coined money and the alphabet stimulated trade. Culture began to flourish, no longer exclusively the domain of the elite. Sea-raiders upset cultural, scientific, and mathematical progress as they destroyed Minoan civilization, and disrupted Egyptian and Babylonian development. The rise of the Greek city-state in 7th-6th centuries BCE allowed new freedoms to citizens. More leisure (begotten from slavery and wealth) stimulated the growth of rationalism, philosophy, and science. In contrast to oriental approaches, the Greeks did not just "how?" but sought to know "why?" Thales of Milete (who had traveled to Babylon and Egypt) is considered the father of Greek math. In seeking a rational scheme to the universe his tradition added an element of rationalism to mathematics. Only small fragments remain, but through careful analysis a consistent picture of Greek math emerges. The rise of Persia led to conflict and an eventual Greek victory, which expanded the power of Athens. Democratic ideals flourished from 450-400 BCE, paving the path for the Golden Age of Greece. Sophists had greater freedom to examine ideas more abstract than useful. The only complete fragment of this period is written by Hippocrates of Chios. The work shows perfected mathematical reasoning and deals with the impractical: the

http://www.msu.org/ethics/content_ethics/texts/plato/plato_eb.htm

Extractions: http://www.eb.com:180/cgi-bin/g?DocF=macro/5005/10/28.html Plato was born, the son of Ariston and Perictione, in Athens, or perhaps in Aegina, in about 428 BC, the year after the death of the great statesman Pericles. His family, on both sides, was among the most distinguished in Athens. Ariston is said to have claimed descent from the god Poseidon through Codrus, the last king of Athens; on the mother's side, the family was related to the early Greek lawmaker Solon. Nothing is known about Plato 's father's death. It is assumed that he died when Plato was a boy. Perictione apparently married as her second husband her uncle Pyrilampes, a prominent supporter of Pericles; and Plato was probably brought up chiefly in his house. Critias and Charmides, leaders among the extremists of the oligarchic terror of 404, were, respectively, cousin and brother of Perictione; both were friends of Socrates, and through them Plato must have known the philosopher from boyhood.
