This timeline is currently under construction and will be placed in the article Greek mathematics. Note that 323 BCE marked the end of the Hellenic period and began the Hellenistic period. The "silver age", also known as the Alexandrian age, lasted from about 250 AD to 350 AD. The death of Boethius (524) may be taken to mark the end of the ancient mathematics in the Western Roman Empire. The death of Hypatia marks the end of the Alexandrian period (pages 192-193 Boyer). "The year 529 may be taken to mark the close of European mathematical development in antiquity."
