She was the greatest mind in Alexandria then she was torn apart by a mob! Hypatia of Alexandria
was a philosopher, astronomer, and mathematician who was the head of the Neoplatonist
school in the 4th century. Her students including Christians traveled from across the
world to learn from her. She created complex instruments like the astrolabe and
the hydrometer and likely edited the essential mathematical works of Ptolemy and Euclid.
She advised the city's political elite, but her influence and Pagan beliefs
made her a target. In 415 AD, she was tragically murdered by a mob silencing one of antiquity's
greatest female voices! She became the ultimate martyr for reason and knowledge!
