Fun facts about Greek and Roman:
The Ancient Greeks were the first people to systematically examine the world to attempt to discover why it worked the way it appared to. Their ideas were so influential that, for two millennia, Western science was influenced almost entirely by Greek ideas. The later Romans, Arabs, and medieval Europeans did little more than enlarge on Greek ideas.
Hypatia (who lived from around 370 to 415 A.D.) was a soaring figure of beauty, eloquence, and learning, and the last recorded member of the great library of Alexandria and the only noted woman scholar of antiquity. She taught Neoplatonism (hence, she was a pagan) and helped to demonstrate Euclid's ideas. Although Christian bishops were among her pupils, she was the subject of violent antagonism on the part of zealots. She was murdered in 415 by rioting fanatic monks, under the leadership of bishop Cyril, who brutally sliced her body to pieces with oyster shells gathered from the Alexandrian harbour.
