The ancient science was the honor of Merlin to King Arthur and defines the ,"old ways and the new ways", of magic.
That which was unknown of the other side of the planet was found as the wizards searched for the other side of the Earth as the pages of wizards books and spells.

The earliest reliably documented mention of the spherical Earth concept dates from around the 6th century BC when it appeared in ancient Greek philosophy,[1][2]but remained a matter of speculation until the 3rd century BC, when Hellenistic astronomy established the spherical shape of the Earth as a physical given and calculated Earth's circumference. The paradigm was gradually adopted throughout the Old World during Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages.[3][4][5][6] A practical demonstration of Earth's sphericity was achieved by Ferdinand Magellan and Juan Sebastián Elcano's expedition's circumnavigation (1519–1522).[7]
The concept of a spherical Earth displaced earlier beliefs in a flat Earth: In early Mesopotamian mythology, the world was portrayed as a flat disk floating in the ocean with a hemispherical sky-dome above,[8] and this forms the premise for early world maps like those of Anaximander and Hecataeus of Miletus. Other speculations on the shape of Earth include a seven-layered ziggurat or cosmic mountain, alluded to in the Avesta and ancient Persian writings (see seven climes).
The realization that the figure of the Earth is more accurately described as an ellipsoid dates to the 17th century, as described by Isaac Newton in Principia. In the early 19th century, the flattening of the earth ellipsoid was determined to be of the order of 1/300 (Delambre, Everest). The modern value as determined by the US DoD World Geodetic System since the 1960s is close to 1/298.25.[9]

Because the Earth was known to be round,long before Merlin (Greek culture and science 500 bc) , the appearance of Merlin at the time of 500 ad must also have the appearance of the ,"sense of magic" as the knowledge of something existing beyond this side. This was the ,"realm of the mythical, the super natural beings , the creatures of magic".They were thought to exist on the other side
of Earth.
However ,each place on Earth has to have ,some knowledge of their own place in the wolds of, sorcery, wizardry and magic to be able to explain their own cultural ties,
with their own migration as the 6 missing links define the senses of hearing, sight, taste, touch, smell and the magical sense.
Each developed with another type of appearance that gave gene expression the changed appearance of each migrated human.
