   Extractions: X. Saint Luke and Josephus I. BIOGRAPHY OF SAINT LUKE The name Lucas (Luke) is probably an abbreviation from Lucanus, like Annas from Ananus, Apollos from Apollonius, Artemas from Artemidorus, Demas from Demetrius, etc. (Schanz, "Evang. des heiligen Lucas", 1, 2; Lightfoot on "Col.", iv, 14; Plummer, "St. Luke", introd.) The word Lucas seems to have been unknown before the Christian Era; but Lucanus is common in inscriptions, and is found at the beginning and end of the Gospel in some Old Latin manuscripts (ibid.). It is generally held that St. Luke was a native of Antioch. Eusebius (Hist. Eccl. III, iv, 6) has: Loukas de to men genos on ton ap Antiocheias, ten episteuen iatros, ta pleista suggegonos to Paulo, kai rots laipois de ou parergos ton apostolon homilnkos "Lucas vero domo Antiochenus, arte medicus, qui et cum Paulo diu conjunctissime vixit, et cum reliquis Apostolis studiose versatus est."

   Extractions: We know little of Zenodorus 's life but he is mentioned in the Arabic translation of Diocles On burning mirrors where it is stated [3]:- And when Zenodorus the astronomer came down to Arcadia and was introduced to us, he asked us how to find a mirror surface such that when it is placed facing the sun the rays reflected from it meet a point and thus cause burning. Toomer notes that his translation of 'when Zenodorus the astronomer came down to Arcadia and was introduced to us' could, perhaps, be translated 'when Zenodorus the astronomer came down to Arcadia and was appointed to a teaching position there'. Before the discovery of the Arabic text of Diocles On burning mirrors, Zenodorus was known to us mainly because of references to his treatise On isometric figures which is lost. There is another interesting source of information however. When Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD, Herculaneum together with Pompeii and Stabiae, was destroyed. Herculaneum was buried by a compact mass of material about 16 metres deep which preserved the city until excavations began in the 18 th century. Special conditions of humidity of the ground conserved wood, cloth, food, and in particular many papyri.

    http://coll-ferry-montlucon.pays-allier.com/zenodor.htm
    
    Extractions: Vers 200 – vers 140 av J.C. On ne sait que peu de choses sur la vie de Zénodorus. Le peu d’éléments provient d’une traduction arabe de l’œuvre de Dioclès . Au cours d’un de ses séjours en Arcadie, Zénodorus rencontra Dioclès et lui demanda s’il serait en mesure de concevoir un miroir dont la surface serait telle qu’elle concentrerait les rayons du Soleil en un seul point afin qu’ils puissent éventuellement allumer un feu. D’autres sources font aussi référence à un travail perdu de Zénodorus sur les figures isométriques. Une récente découverte, dans le site d’Herculanum, d’un papyrus écrit par un certain Philomidès fait référence à un Zénodorus, ami de l’auteur, qui semble bien être le même personnage que le mathématicien dont il est ici question et qui aurait accompli au moins deux séjours à Athènes.
