Behind the scenes - There are several historical figures who
bore the name Ptolemy, the most famous being Claudius Ptolemaeus
(c. 90 AD – c. 168 AD), a mathematician, astronomer, geographer,
and astrologer who lived in Egypt while it was under Roman rule.
Another famous historic figure was Ptolemy I, who was one of
Alexander the Great's generals. He was the first Pharaoh of the
Ptolemaic dynasty. - Ptolemy's famous wizard card doen't appears
in any of Harry Potter games and Pottermore, the reason is,
maybe it is very rare card, because Ron Weasley had about five
hundred Chocolate Frog Cards and he was missing only Agrippa and
Ptolemy. The name "Ptolemy" comes from the Greek name Πτολεμαιος
(Ptolemaios), derived from Greek πολεμηιος (polemeios) meaning
"aggressive" or "warlike". - Harry Potter and the Philosopher's
