Ptolemy
Claudius Ptolemy (/ˈtɒləmi/; Greek: Κλαύδιος Πτολεμαῖος, Klaúdios Ptolemaîos, [kláwdios ptolɛmɛ́ːos]; Latin: Claudius Ptolemaeus; c. AD 100 – c. 170) was a Greco-Egyptian writer, known as a mathematician, astronomer, geographer, astrologer, and poet of a single epigram in the Greek Anthology. He lived in the city of Alexandria in the Roman province of Egypt, wrote in Koine Greek, and held Roman citizenship. Beyond that, few reliable details of his life are known. His birthplace has been given as Ptolemais Hermiou in the Thebaid in an uncorroborated statement by the 14th-century astronomer Theodore Meliteniotes. This is a very late attestation, however, and there is no other reason to suppose that he ever lived anywhere else than Alexandria, where he died around AD 168.
Ptolemy was the author of several scientific treatises, three of which were of continuing importance to later Byzantine, Islamic and European science. The first is the astronomical treatise now known as the Almagest, although it was originally entitled the "Mathematical Treatise" (Μαθηματικὴ Σύνταξις, Mathēmatikē Syntaxis) and then known as the "Great Treatise" (Ἡ Μεγάλη Σύνταξις, Ē Megálē Syntaxis). The second is the Geography, which is a thorough discussion of the geographic knowledge of the Greco-Roman world. This manuscript was used by Christopher Columbus as the map for his westward-bound path to Asia, in which he discovered the hitherto unknown lands of the Americas. The third is the astrological treatise in which he attempted to adapt horoscopic astrology to the Aristotelian natural philosophy of his day. This is sometimes known as the Apotelesmatika (Ἀποτελεσματικά) but more commonly known as the Tetrabiblos from the Greek (Τετράβιβλος) meaning "Four Books" or by the Latin Quadripartitum.

Ptolemy (name)
The name Ptolemy or Ptolemaeus comes from the Greek Ptolemaios, which seems to mean warlike or son of war. There have been many people named Ptolemy or Ptolemaeus, the most famous of whom are the Greek-Egyptian astronomer Claudius Ptolemaeus, and the Macedonian founder and ruler of the Ptolemaic Kingdom in Egypt, Ptolemy I Soter. The following sections summarise the history of the name, some of the people named Ptolemy, and some of the other uses of this name.
Etymology and history
According to Georg Autenrieth the English name Ptolemy comes from the Ancient Greek name Πτολεμαῖος (Ptolemaios), "warlike" or "son of war". Autienrieth renders the meaning of the name to be an adjective from πτόλεμος (ptólemos), explained as a Homeric form of πόλεμος (pólemos), "war". A nephew of Antigonus I was called Polemaeus, the normal form of the adjective. Ptolemaios is first attested in Homer's Iliad and is the name of an Achaean warrior, son of Piraeus, father of Eurymedon.
The name Ptolemaios varied over the years from its roots in Ancient Greece, appearing in different languages in various forms and spellings. The original form, and some of the variants, are listed here in the languages relevant to the history of the name.

Ptolemy (gnostic)
Ptolemy the Gnostic, or Ptolemaeus Gnosticus, was a disciple of the Gnostic teacher Valentinius and is known for an epistle he wrote to a wealthy woman named Flora, herself not a gnostic.
Ptolemy was probably still alive c. 180. No other certain details are known about his life; Harnack's suggestion that he was identical with the Ptolemy spoken of by St. Justin is as yet unproved. It is not known when Ptolemy became a disciple of Valentinius, but Valentinius was active in the Egyptian city of Alexandria and in Rome. Ptolemy was, with Heracleon, the principal writer of the Italian or Western school of Valentinian Gnosticism, which was active in Rome, Italy, and Southern Gaul.
Ptolemy's works have reached us in an incomplete form as follows:
The latter is found in the works of Epiphanius. It was written in response to Flora's inquiry concerning the origin of the Law of the Old Testament. The Decalogue, Ptolemy states, cannot be attributed to the Supreme God, nor to the devil; indeed, the set of laws does not even proceed from a single law-giver. A part of it is the work of an inferior god, analogous to the gnostic demiurge; the second part is attributable to Moses, and the third part to the elders of the Jewish people. In addition, Ptolemy subdivides the part of the Decalogue ascribed to the inferior god into three further sections:

Egypt (band)
There is/has been more than one band called Egypt over the years. This can cause confusion with albums & tracks from different 'Egypts' often listed together as if they were one band. This Egypt (1987 to the present) is best known for its close connections to 1960s/70s band The Groundhogs and, just to add to the confusion, had a very different style and line-up in the early days, making many people believe they were two different bands.
The early years
Egypt's original line-up first got together in a squat in Shepherds Bush, London in late 1987, but the story really begins a few weeks before when ex-Groundhogs bass player Alan Fish and ex-Jethro Tull drummer Clive Bunker were asked to record the very first album release (literally serial number 001) for the then fledgling record label HTD Records (HTD are now Talking Elephant Records and deal with Wishbone Ash, Fairport Convention, Ritchie Blackmore, Steven Stills, etc.). Also included was guitarist Don Greer (ex-Bachman Turner Overdrive and others).

Egypt (TV series)
Egypt is a BBC television docudrama serial portraying events in the history of Egyptology from the 18th through early 20th centuries. It originally aired on Sunday nights at 9 pm on BBC1 in 2005. The first two episodes explored the work of Howard Carter and his archaeological quest in Egypt in the early part of the twentieth century. The next two episodes focused on the eccentric explorer "The Great Belzoni". played here by ]Matthew Kelly. The final two episodes dramatise the discovery and deciphering of the Rosetta Stone by Jean-François Champollion (Elliot Cowan).
The music was recorded by the Warsaw Radio Orchestra and is featured on the CD Timeless Histories by Chappell music, produced by Clare Isaacs.
Production
The series was a major new docudrama series produced by the BBC for the Autumn 2005 schedule.
In order to create a sense of "seeing the treasures of Ancient Egypt for the first time", Dolling and Bradshaw felt it essential to film at the actual archaeological sites referenced in the series.

The Ptolemaic Dynasty of Ancient Egypt: From Ptolemy I to Cleopatra VII
The Ptolemaic dynasty in Ancient Egypt began under the rule of Ptolemy I Soter, whose goal was to make Egypt great again and he did that by putting the country back on solid economic and administrative footing, and it ended with Cleopatra VII. When Alexander the Great of Macedon died unexpectedly in 323 BCE he had amassed an enormous empire spanning from Egypt through Anatolia, Mesopotamia and parts of India. In order to stay away from the influence of the priests and officials at Memphis, Ptolemy I moved the capital from its traditional place at Memphis to Alexandria. Alexandria, a city established by Alexander the Great, grew and flourished under the Ptolemies. The city became more of a Greek city than an Egyptian one, with the port giving easy access to the sea and Greece, and with Gree...

Ptolemy's Geocentric Model
Without modern instruments, it was very hard to understand what the planets were, especially since they seemed to wander independently from the stars. Ptolemy provided the definitive answer for the time being. Earth was the centre of the universe and all the heavenly bodies rotated around it. For inquiry, consider the following: 1. Investigate the work of Aristarchus. What was his model of the universe and why? How did it differ from Ptolemy's? 2. Why is there no gale force wind blowing constantly as the Earth moves about the Sun? What is the cause of wind? How do hurricanes evolve? 3. What was it about the Ptolemaic model that allowed it to last for 1500 years, and what was it that eventually brought about it's demise? 4. Explain why you don't change position in a moving train when you j...

The city became more of a Greek city than an Egyptian one, with the port giving easy access to the sea and Greece, and with Greece becoming the language of both commerce and government.
A thing to note about the Ptolemies, although they were Pharaohs of Egypt, they didn’t learn the Egyptian language and pretty much just stayed in Alexandria (which they had made the new capital, moving it from the traditional capital of Memphis). They used Greek for all of their administrative documents, and married within their own family to keep the bloodline pure and also keep their wealth in the family.

There are some other proofs of Ptolemy's theorem/inequality based on scaling and aligning suitable triangles. However, none of them is as slick, beautiful and powerful as Rainer's new proof. In particular, check out the animated scaling proof on the wiki page for Ptolemy's theorem (and this https://youtu.be/ZK08Z5A9xH4) and check out the scaling proof by Claudi Asina and Roger Nelson: Proof Without Words: Ptolemy’s Inequality in Mathematics Magazine 87, (2014), p. 291. https://www.jstor.org/stable/10.4169/math.mag.87.4.291
Rainer was inspired by a classic scaling based proof of Pythagoras theorem that I presented here https://youtu.be/p-0SOWbzUYI?si=GeGzZ0R_Dj1AsXqR&t=371

Ptolemy's theorem made a guest appearance in the the previous Mathologer video on the golden ratio: https://youtu.be/cCXRUHUgvLI
Here is a nice trick to make Ptolemy counterparts of Pythagorean triples. Take any two sets of Pythagorean triples:
5² = 3² + 4², 13² = 12² + 5², and combine them like this:
65² = 13² × 5²= 13²(4² + 3²) = 52² + 39²= 5²(12² + 5²) = 60² + 25².
Now combining the two right angled triangles 52-39-65 and 25-60-65 along the common diagonal in any of four different ways gives a convex quadrilateral with all sides integers. Note that you automatically get 5 integer lengths and then Ptolemy's theorem guarantees that the remaining side is a fraction. Scaling up everything by the denominator of that fraction gives one of the special integer-everywhere quadrilaterals. See also Brahmagupta quadrilaterals.
Here is a nice application of Ptolemy's theorem to a International Maths Olympiad problem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHjtHOE1lks
In a cyclic quadrilateral the ratio of the diagonals equals the ratio of the sums of products of the sides that share the diagonals' end points: https://www.geogebra.org/m/XQr5jJQg This extension of Ptolemy's theorem is part of the thumbnail for this video.

Ptolemy I Soter, a former commander of Alexander the Great turned King and Pharaoh of Egypt, was perhaps the craftiest out of all of Alexander’s Successors. A talented commander and even more brilliant politician, Ptolemy would wield diplomacy and intrigue with a deft hand, founding what would become the longest lasting Hellenistic Kingdom in his nearly 40-year reign.

The Ptolemaic dynasty in Ancient Egypt began under the rule of Ptolemy I Soter, whose goal was to make Egypt great again and he did that by putting the country back on solid economic and administrative footing, and it ended with Cleopatra VII. When Alexander the Great of Macedon died unexpectedly in 323 BCE he had amassed an enormous empire spanning from Egypt through Anatolia, Mesopotamia and parts of India. In order to stay away from the influence of the priests and officials at Memphis, Ptolemy I moved the capital from its traditional place at Memphis to Alexandria. Alexandria, a city established by Alexander the Great, grew and flourished under the Ptolemies. The city became more of a Greek city than an Egyptian one, with the port giving easy access to the sea and Greece, and with Greece becoming the language of both commerce and government.
A thing to note about the Ptolemies, although they were Pharaohs of Egypt, they didn’t learn the Egyptian language and pretty much just stayed in Alexandria (which they had made the new capital, moving it from the traditional capital of Memphis). They used Greek for all of their administrative documents, and married within their own family to keep the bloodline pure and also keep their wealth in the family.

Without modern instruments, it was very hard to understand what the planets were, especially since they seemed to wander independently from the stars. Ptolemy provided the definitive answer for the time being. Earth was the centre of the universe and all the heavenly bodies rotated around it.
For inquiry, consider the following:
1. Investigate the work of Aristarchus. What was his model of the universe and why? How did it differ from Ptolemy's?
2. Why is there no gale force wind blowing constantly as the Earth moves about the Sun? What is the cause of wind? How do hurricanes evolve?
3. What was it about the Ptolemaic model that allowed it to last for 1500 years, and what was it that eventually brought about it's demise?
4. Explain why you don't change position in a moving train when you jump up in the air. Why does the train not move out from under you?
5. Use this website as a starting point to do some research and reporting into the great minds that have influenced our understanding of the heavens: https://starchild.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/StarChild/universe_level2/cosmology.html
6. In Western society, we often hear only about the Greeks and perhaps the Egyptians, with regard to astronomy. Find one major astronomical contribution made by the Chinese, the Indian and at least one First Nation.

There are some other proofs of Ptolemy's theorem/inequality based on scaling and aligning suitable triangles. However, none of them is as slick, beautiful and powerful as Rainer's new proof. In particular, check out the animated scaling proof on the wiki page for Ptolemy's theorem (and this https://youtu.be/ZK08Z5A9xH4) and check out the scaling proof by Claudi Asina and Roger Nelson: Proof Without Words: Ptolemy’s Inequality in Mathematics Magazine 87, (2014), p. 291. https://www.jstor.org/stable/10.4169/math.mag.87.4.291
Rainer was inspired by a classic scaling based proof of Pythagoras theorem that I presented here https://youtu.be/p-0SOWbzUYI?si=GeGzZ0R_Dj1AsXqR&t=371
You can find a couple of full text versions of the Almagest here
https://www.wilbourhall.org/index.html#ptolemy

For more background info check out the very comprehensive wiki pages on:

Ptolemy’s inequality

There are very interesting higher-dimensional versions of Ptolemy's theorem just like there are higher-dimensional versions of Pythagoras theorem. I did not get around to talking them today. Google ...

Ptolemy's theorem made a guest appearance in the the previous Mathologer video on the golden ratio: https://youtu.be/cCXRUHUgvLI
Here is a nice trick to make Ptolemy counterparts of Pythagorean triples. Take any two sets of Pythagorean triples:
5² = 3² + 4², 13² = 12² + 5², and combine them like this:
65² = 13² × 5²= 13²(4² + 3²) = 52² + 39²= 5²(12² + 5²) = 60² + 25².
Now combining the two right angled triangles 52-39-65 and 25-60-65 along the common diagonal in any of four different ways gives a convex quadrilateral with all sides integers. Note that you automatically get 5 integer lengths and then Ptolemy's theorem guarantees that the remaining side is a fraction. Scaling up everything by the denominator of that fraction gives one of the special integer-everywhere quadrilaterals. See also Brahmagupta quadrilaterals.
Here is a nice application of Ptolemy's theorem to a International Maths Olympiad problem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHjtHOE1lks
In a cyclic quadrilateral the ratio of the diagonals equals the ratio of the sums of products of the sides that share the diagonals' end points: https://www.geogebra.org/m/XQr5jJQg This extension of Ptolemy's theorem is part of the thumbnail for this video.

Ptolemy I Soter, a former commander of Alexander the Great turned King and Pharaoh of Egypt, was perhaps the craftiest out of all of Alexander’s Successors. A talented commander and even more brilliant politician, Ptolemy would wield diplomacy and intrigue with a deft hand, founding what would become the longest lasting Hellenistic Kingdom in his nearly 40-year reign.

Ptolemy
Claudius Ptolemy (/ˈtɒləmi/; Greek: Κλαύδιος Πτολεμαῖος, Klaúdios Ptolemaîos, [kláwdios ptolɛmɛ́ːos]; Latin: Claudius Ptolemaeus; c. AD 100 – c. 170) was a Greco-Egyptian writer, known as a mathematician, astronomer, geographer, astrologer, and poet of a single epigram in the Greek Anthology. He lived in the city of Alexandria in the Roman province of Egypt, wrote in Koine Greek, and held Roman citizenship. Beyond that, few reliable details of his life are known. His birthplace has been given as Ptolemais Hermiou in the Thebaid in an uncorroborated statement by the 14th-century astronomer Theodore Meliteniotes. This is a very late attestation, however, and there is no other reason to suppose that he ever lived anywhere else than Alexandria, where he died around AD 168.
Ptolemy was the author of several scientific treatises, three of which were of continuing importance to later Byzantine, Islamic and European science. The first is the astronomical treatise now known as the Almagest, although it was originally entitled the "Mathematical Treatise" (Μαθηματικὴ Σύνταξις, Mathēmatikē Syntaxis) and then known as the "Great Treatise" (Ἡ Μεγάλη Σύνταξις, Ē Megálē Syntaxis). The second is the Geography, which is a thorough discussion of the geographic knowledge of the Greco-Roman world. This manuscript was used by Christopher Columbus as the map for his westward-bound path to Asia, in which he discovered the hitherto unknown lands of the Americas. The third is the astrological treatise in which he attempted to adapt horoscopic astrology to the Aristotelian natural philosophy of his day. This is sometimes known as the Apotelesmatika (Ἀποτελεσματικά) but more commonly known as the Tetrabiblos from the Greek (Τετράβιβλος) meaning "Four Books" or by the Latin Quadripartitum.

Ancient Egypt
by: Tom Verlaine(Verlaine)
The minute I lay my head on the pillow
I'm in ancient Egypt, I can feel it glow,
Warm and gold,
Gold and warm.
And I'll see you there all dressed in raindrops,
Need I explain? I don't think so, Pops,
Warm and gold,
Gold and warm.
I've been working,
I've been chopping wood,
And this makes me a hungry man.
And every time I
Look up in my dream,
I feel the touch of your sweet hand.
I sit here now and watch you rub your leg,
You tell me baby, that's just OK,
OK, OK,
And I like to watch that ripple effect,
As long as there is no shipwreck,
Yes I do,
Oh, yes I do.
I've been working,
I've been chopping wood,
And this makes me a hungry man.
And every time I
Look up in my dream,
I feel the touch of your sweet hand.
Yes, I used to have one or two reservations,
So what?
Well, so what?
It's a likely story, it's not hard to tell,
Maybe you and I will be in for a spell,
In and out,
Out and in.
I've been working,
I've been chopping wood,
And this makes me a hungry man.
And every time I
Look up in my dream,
I feel the touch of your sweet hand.
Yeah, I've been working,
I've been chopping wood,
And this makes me a hungry man.
And every time I
Look up in my dream,
