Onomastus was a confidential officer of Philip V of Macedon , for whom he held the government of the sea coast of Thrace, and whose instrument he was, together with the general Cassander, in the Massacre of Maroneia , 185 BC .

Perseus c. 150 BC was an Greece ancient Greek geometer , who invented the concept of spiric section s, in analogy to the conic section s studied by Apollonius of Perga . Few details of Perseus life are known, as he is mentioned only by Proclus and Geminus none of his own works have survived. The spiric sections result from the intersection of a torus with a Plane mathematics plane that is parallel to the rotational symmetry axis of the torus. Consequently, spiric sections are fourth order quartic curve quartic plane curve s, whereas the conic section s are second order quadratic function quadratic plane curve s. Spiric sections are a special case of a toric section , and were the first toric sections to be described. The most famous spiric section is the Cassini oval , which is the locus of points having a constant product of distances to two foci. For comparison, an ellipse has a constant sum of focal distances, a hyperbola has a constant difference of focal distances and a circle has a constant ratio of focal distances.
