Nomenclature

Leonardo da Vinci (April 15, 1452 – May 2, 1519) was an Italian polymath: scientist, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, painter, sculptor, architect, musician, and writer. Leonardo's studies in science and engineering are as impressive and innovative as his artistic work, recorded in notebooks comprising some 13,000 pages of notes and drawings, which fuse art and natural philosophy (the forerunner of modern science).
Named by Peucker in [/Blagg%20and%20M%C3%BCller Named Lunar Formations] in 1935 ([/Whitaker Whitaker], p 229).
