Para sejarawan berhutang banyak akan pengetahuan mereka kepada solusi Archimedes tentang kubik dengan cara memotong conics yang disinggung di dalam ''The Sphere and Cylinder'', pada Eutocius dan komentarnya. Eutocius mendedikasikan komentarnya atas Apollonius' ''Conics'' kepada [[Anthemius of Tralles]], juga seorang matematik, dan arsitek [[Santa Sophia]].<ref>Boyer, p. 193. "Eutocius (born ca. 480), commented on several Archimedean treatises and on the Apollonian ''Conics''. It is to Eutocius that we owe the Archimedean solution of a cubic through intersecting conics, referred to in ''The Sphere and Cylinder'' but not otherwise extant except through the commentary of Eutocius. The commentary by Eutocius on the ''Conics'' of Apollonius was dedicated to Anthemius of Tralles (t534), an able mathematician and architect of St. Sophia of Constantinople."</ref>
