Euclide (in greco antico: Εὐκλείδης, Eukléidēs; IV secolo a.C. – III secolo a.C.) è stato un matematico e filosofo greco antico.Si occupò di vari ambiti, dall’ottica all’astronomia, dalla musica alla meccanica, oltre, ovviamente, alla matematica. Gli Elementi, il suo lavoro più noto, rappresentano una delle più influenti opere di tutta la storia della matematica e furono uno dei principali testi per l'insegnamento della geometria dalla sua pubblicazione fino agli inizi del ‘900.
