EUDOXUS

This article appears in Volume V09, Page 882 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: EUD-FAT
EUDOXUS , of Cyzicus,
Greek
  navigator, flourished about 130 B.C. He was employed by
Ptolemy
  Euergetes, who sent out a
fleet
  under him to explore the Arabian Sea. After two successful voyages, Eudoxus left the Egyptian service, and proceeded to Cadiz with the
object
  of fitting out an expedition for the purpose of
African
  discovery; and we learn from
Strabo
 , who utilized the results of his observations, that the veteran explorer made at least two voyages southward along the
coast
  of Africa.
There is a good account of Eudoxus in E. H. Bunbury, History of Ancient Geography, ii. (1879) ; see also P. Gaffarel, Eudoxe de Cyzique (1873).
