Marcus Vitruvius Pollio (born c. 80–70 BC, died after c. 15BC), commonly known as Vitruvius, was a Roman author, architect, civil engineer and military engineer during the 1st century BC, known for his multi-volume work entitled De architectura.
By his own description Vitruvius served as an artilleryman, the third class of arms in the military offices. He probably served as a senior officer of artillery in charge of doctores ballistarum (artillery experts) and libratores who actually operated the machines.
Life and career
Little is known about Vitruvius' life. Most inferences about him are extracted from his only surviving work De Architectura. His first name Marcus and his cognomenPollio are uncertain. He was possibly a praefectus fabrum during military service or praefect architectus armamentarius of the apparitor status group. Cetius Faventinus speaks of "Vitruvius Polio aliique auctores" in his epitome; it is possible that the cognomen derives from this mention by Cetius, meaning Vitruvius, Polio, and others – further confusing the cognomen, an inscription in Verona names Lucius Vitruvius Cordo and an inscription from Thilbilis, North Africa (near Guelma) names Marcus Vitruvius Mamurra. From this inscription the archaeologist Dr. G. Q. Giglioli nearly concludes that Vitruvius and Mamurra are from the same family; his argument is presented by Ettore Pais:
The rim of Vitruvius is somewhat circular, but the sides are uneven to the north and east. The rim is highest to the northwest. The interior floor is uneven, with some low rises in the southwest. A small crater is attached to southern outer rim. The surroundings grow more rugged to the north of the crater.
Satellite craters
By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater midpoint that is closest to Vitruvius.
The following craters have been renamed by the IAU.

Da Vinci's Vitruvian Man of math - James Earle
View full lesson: http://ed.ted.com/lessons/da-vinci-s-vitruvian-man-of-math-james-earle
What's so special about Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian Man? With arms outstretched, the man fills the irreconcilable spaces of a circle and a square -- symbolizing the Renaissance-era belief in the mutable nature of humankind. James Earle explains the geometric, religious and philosophical significance of this deceptively simple drawing.

In Our Time: S14/26 Vitruvius and De Architectura (March 15 2012)
Melvyn Bragg and his guests discuss Vitruvius' De Architectura. Written almost exactly two thousand years ago, Vitruvius' work is a ten-volume treatise on engineering and architecture, the only surviving work on the subject from the ancient world. This fascinating book offers unique insights into Roman technology and contains discussion of the general principles of architecture, the training of architects and the design of temples, houses and public buildings.The rediscovery of this seminal treatise in the 15th century provided the impetus for the neoclassical architectural movement, and Vitruvius exerted a significant influence on the work of Renaissance architects including Palladio, Brunelleschi and Alberti. It remains a hugely important text today, two millennia after it was written.

Firmitas Utilitas Venustas: The Vitruvian Triad Explained with Alfred and Francis Terry
What makes good architecture? The Roman architect Vitruvius states that it is the combination of firmitas (firmness or structural strength), utilitas, (usefulness or function) and venustas (beauty). These three attributes have been translated in a variety of ways, most famously by the 17th century author and diplomat Sir Henry Wotton as ‘commodity, firmness, and delight’.
In this video I attempt to understand what Vitruvius actually meant by analysing the original text with the help of my son Alfred who is a classics student at the University of Manchester.

What makes good architecture? The Roman architect Vitruvius states that it is the combination of firmitas (firmness or structural strength), utilitas, (usefulness or function) and venustas (beauty). These three attributes have been translated in a variety of ways, most famously by the 17th century author and diplomat Sir Henry Wotton as ‘commodity, firmness, and delight’.
In this video I attempt to understand what Vitruvius actually meant by analysing the original text with the help of my son Alfred who is a classics student at the University of Manchester.
Marcus Vitruvius Pollio (born c. 80–70 BC, died after c. 15BC), commonly known as Vitruvius, was a Roman author, architect, civil engineer and military engineer during the 1st century BC, known for his multi-volume work entitled De architectura.
By his own description Vitruvius served as an artilleryman, the third class of arms in the military offices. He probably served as a senior officer of artillery in charge of doctores ballistarum (artillery experts) and libratores who actually operated the machines.
Life and career
Little is known about Vitruvius' life. Most inferences about him are extracted from his only surviving work De Architectura. His first name Marcus and his cognomenPollio are uncertain. He was possibly a praefectus fabrum during military service or praefect architectus armamentarius of the apparitor status group. Cetius Faventinus speaks of "Vitruvius Polio aliique auctores" in his epitome; it is possible that the cognomen derives from this mention by Cetius, meaning Vitruvius, Polio, and others – further confusing the cognomen, an inscription in Verona names Lucius Vitruvius Cordo and an inscription from Thilbilis, North Africa (near Guelma) names Marcus Vitruvius Mamurra. From this inscription the archaeologist Dr. G. Q. Giglioli nearly concludes that Vitruvius and Mamurra are from the same family; his argument is presented by Ettore Pais:
In the first century BC, the Roman architect and engineer Vitruvius described a "powder" that achieved "wonderful" results when added to a simple lime-water mix ... VitruviusAn engraving of Vitruvius, while presenting De Architectura to Emperor Augustus.
towns and cities ... It was updated in October 2024 ... Credits. Roman EmpireTimes ... Vitruvius even mentions the use of charcoal in drains, suggesting that the Romans knew about its odor-absorbing properties. A sketch of Vitruvius, from an unknown author ... 301.
Vitruvius, in his De Architectura says."For this reason the orientations of main streets must be turned away from the sources of the winds, in order that gusts be deflected, broken, and dispersed when striking the insulae on the corner.".
Vitruvius, in his De Architectura, highlights the contrasts between Greek and Roman (or Italic as he likes to put it) architecture, emphasizing how Roman architecture is distinct and tailored to the unique conditions of Roman life.
