Timosthenes

Ancient Greek cartographer

Timosthenes of Rhodes was a Greek navigator, geographer and admiral in Ptolemaic navy. He is credited with inventing the system of twelve winds that became known as the Greek 12-wind rose.

Timosthenes is read about 8 times a day, in 10 languages.

A typical day, 30 days to 17 August 2026

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.
