Around 240 BCE, Eratosthenes used shadows to estimate Earth’s size. At Syene, the Sun was straight overhead, but in Alexandria, a stick made a shadow. Using that angle, the city distance, and geometry, he calculated Earth’s circumference surprisingly close to the modern value.

Here’s how he did it:

In Syene, at noon on a certain day, the Sun was almost straight overhead. A deep well had sunlight at the bottom, and a vertical stick made almost no shadow.

On the same day and time in Alexandria, a vertical stick did make a shadow.

He measured that shadow and found the Sun’s angle there was about 7.2 degrees.

A full circle is 360 degrees.

7.2 degrees is 1/50 of 360.

That meant the distance from Syene to Alexandria was about 1/50 of Earth’s full circle.

So he took the distance between the two cities and multiplied it by 50.

That gave him Earth’s circumference.

🧬 All humans trace back to Mitochondrial Eve. The “Eve gene” proves what we’ve always known: Black women are the root of humanity, the only race able to create all shades and varieties ✊🏾🌍👑

Anarcha Westcott was a young Black girl enslaved in Alabama. After a traumatic childbirth, she developed vaginal and rectal fistulas, a condition that left her in constant pain and shame.

Instead of receiving care, she was experimented on over 30 times by Dr. J. Marion Sims, who operated on her without anesthesia. He used her body to develop a surgery that would later be used to treat white women, with pain relief, dignity, and consent.

Anarcha didn’t agree to any of it. She wasn’t a patient. She was a victim of medical violence.

Today, she is finally being remembered, not as a statistic, but as one of the true Mothers of Modern Gynecology, alongside Lucy and Betsey.
