B. the navigational compass

Explanation:The "Hellenistic period" encompasses the time span from "Alexander's death" in 323 BC until the advent of the "Roman Empire." People who were "famous mathematicians" during the "Hellenistic Period" were "Euclid," "Pythagoras" and "Archimedes," as well as "Eratosthenese." They made "a number of important discoveries and inventions in the fields of sculpture, arithmetic, and geometry," including the "compound pulley," which was used to "transport weights." "Art," "philosophy," "astronomy," and "engineering" all contributed to the "Hellenistic culture's" prominence. The "mapping compass" was a "Chinese" "achievement" during the "Han Dynasty" ("2nd century BC - 1st century AD")
