"Elements of Geometry" is a mathematical work created by the ancient Greek mathematician Euclid. It was written around 300 BC.

This book summarizes previous geometric knowledge and research results, and establishes the earliest example of a deductive mathematical system using axiomatic methods, marking the transformation of geometric knowledge from scattered and fragmented empirical forms to complete logic. The system profoundly influenced the development of mathematics in later generations. The deductive structure adopted was transplanted to other disciplines and also promoted the development of these disciplines.
