Scholarly Hellenistic Knowledges.

Hi all,

I'm drawing up a sample Scholarly Knowledge list for characters in an
alternate antiquity setting that recreates the 3rd C BCE.

I'd like some feedback regarding the accuracy/suitability of my choice of
the 'Top 10' knowledges that players could choose.  For the moment, I'll
leave out how many they can get etc as it's not relevant.  The background
closely parallels our world, so no magical stuff; hence the need for
reasonable accuracy.

1.  Astronomy.
2.  Climatology.  (The world has a differen climate, one that has turned the
mediteranean from temperate to sub tropical)
3.  Geography.
4.  History.
5.  Mathematics.
6.  Medicene.
7.  Philosophy.
8.  Physics.
9.  Rhetoric.
10.  Technology. (As in the toys of Archimedes).
