Hippodamus of Miletus
Hippodamus of Miletus was an ancient Greek architect, urban planner, physician, mathematician, meteorologist and philosopher, who is considered to be "the father of European urban planning", and the namesake of the "Hippodamian plan" of city layout, although rectangular city plans were in use by the ancient Greeks as early as the 8th c. BC.
