Euclid of Alexandria, demonstrater of math

Who is Euclid? - Biography, Contribution & Theorems - Video & Lesson  Transcript | Study.com

Euclid, an ancient Greek mathematician alive during the reign of Ptolemy I in 323-283 BC, was the author of Elements, which served as the primary textbook for mathematics until the dawn of the 19th century. He originated Euclidean Geometry, and while perhaps not demonstrably responsible for the modern era, Euclid was certainly responsible for most of the elementary mathematics that led to it. 

Euclid was among the first to formalize mathematical proofs, the primary method of exposition for the discipline.
