Dicaearchus
Dicaearchus of Messana (; ''Dikaiarkhos''; c. 350 – c. 285 BC), also written Dicearchus or Dicearch (), was a Greek philosopher, cartographer, geographer, mathematician and author. Dicaearchus was Aristotle's student in the Lyceum. Very little of his work remains extant. He wrote on the history and geography of Greece, of which his most important work was his ''Life of Greece''. He made important contributions to the field of cartography, where he was among the first to use geographical coordinates. He also wrote books on philosophy and politics. ==Life== He was the son of one Pheidias, and born at Messana in Sicily, though he passed the greater part of his life in Greece, and especially in Peloponnesus. He was a disciple of Aristotle,〔Cicero, ''de Legibus'', iii. 6.〕 and a friend of Theophrastus, to whom he dedicated some of his writings. He died about 285 BC.
