- nextaccountic 4y agohttps://artofmemory.com/blog/how-to-build-a-memory-palace/ https://artofmemory.com/blog/how-to-build-a-memory-palace/ says "According to Roman legend, the memory palace technique was invented by Simonides of Ceos about 2,500 years ago" but Cicero died 2065 years ago, so, close enough?
- steponlego 4y agoWhat's the source of the Roman legend? IIRC it's Cicero.
