Description
The flat earth model is one concept held by some persons that the Earth’s shape being a plane or a disk. Some cultures think that the Earth is completely flat, and this goes from Greece to the classical period through the Bronze Age to the Iron Age all the way to the 17th century. The first discussion of a Spherical Earth was seen in early Greek philosophy with Pythagoras. However, many others kept the idea of a flat Earth model and Aristotle came forward with evidence of the spherical shape of the Earth. He employed empirical methods around 330BC. However, many persons still have an idea of a flat earth concept and still believe that this is so. We will explore many of the ideas related to this topic and some of the popular persons who do think the Earth is flat.
