Strabo ^[1] (/ˈstreɪboʊ/ STRAY-bo; Griyego: Στράβων, romanisado: Strábōn; 64 o 63 BC – c. 24 AD) usa ka Griyegong heograpo nga nagpuyo sa Asia Minor atol sa transisyonal nga panahon sa Republikang Romano ngadto sa Imperyong Romano . Nailhan siya sa iyang obra nga Geographica, nga nagpresentar ug usa ka deskriptibo nga kasaysayan sa mga tawo ug mga lugar gikan sa lain-laing mga rehiyon sa kalibutan nga nailhan sa iyang kinabuhi. Dugang pa, si Strabo ang nagsulat sa mga sinulat sa kasaysayan, apan ang mga tipik ug mga kinutlo lamang niini ang nagpabilin sa mga sinulat sa ubang mga awtor.

↑ Strabo (meaning "squinty", as in strabismus) was a term employed by the Romans for anyone whose eyes were distorted or deformed. The father of Pompey was called "Pompeius Strabo". A native of Sicily so clear-sighted that he could see things at great distance as if they were nearby was also called "Strabo".
