It was dedicated to the author s lady, Tertulla, and contained a medley of all sorts of legends and fables belonging to both the mythological and historical periods.

To the south southeast Ptolemaeus is joined to the rim of the crater Alphonsus crater Alphonsus by a section of rugged, irregular terrain, and these form a prominent chain with Arzachel crater Arzachel to the south. To the southeast is Albategnius crater Albategnius and to the north is the smaller but well defined Herschel lunar crater Herschel . The features of Ptolemaeus are highlighted when the Sun is at low angles during the first and last quarter. At full Moon the Sun is directly overhead and the crater contours become more difficult to discern. The crater has a low, irregular outer rim that is heavily worn and impacted with multiple smaller craters. The rim has a discernibly polygon al shape, although overall it remains circular. The largest of the peaks along the rim, designated Ptolemaeus Gamma , has an altitude of 2.9 km and is located along the northwest rim. The crater has no central peak, a lava flooded floor, and lacks a ray system . Impact sites of this form are often classified as walled plains, due to their resemblance to the maria.

This has been especially true of women, whether while serving as a soldier in otherwise all male armies, while protecting or disguising their identity in dangerous circumstances, or for other purposes. Conversely, men would dress as women to avoid being drafted, the mythological precedent for this being Achilles hiding at the court of Lycomedes dressed as a girl to avoid participation in the Trojan War .

To the east lies Halley lunar crater Halley , while to the northwest is Gyld n crater Gyld n . The rim of this crater is irregular and slightly oblong, with the long dimension oriented along a north south axis. The southeastern rim is notched by two smaller craters identified as M ller A and M ller O. Perhaps the most distinctive feature of this crater is the peculiar linear formation of small craters that starts at the southern edge of M ller s rim. These follow a line to the northwest, tangential to the rim of Ptolemaeus.

Homer afterwards visited the shrine, persuaded the priests to make copies of the books for him, and afterwards wrote the Iliad and Odyssey . Some say Eustathius adds that Homer himself was Egyptian others, that he visited the country and was taught by Egyptians. The story is one of the least known of the biographical fictions about Homer it is mentioned neither by Samuel Butler nor by Andrew Dalby , both of whom have developed the argument that a woman poet was responsible for the Odyssey .
