The oldest existent work on geometry in China comes from the philosophical Mohist canon c. 330 BCE, compiled by the followers of Mozi (470–390 BCE). The Mo Jing described various aspects of many fields associated with physical science, and provided a small number of geometrical theorems as well.[77] It also defined the concepts of circumference, diameter, radius, and volume.[78]
