Christopher Cattan

Christophe de Cattan (also Christofe Cattan, Christopher Cattan) was a reputed astrologer of the sixteenth century. The title page of one of his books gives him as Swiss, from Geneva.

He is known in connection with geomancy, through the 1558 La Géomancie du Seigneur Christofe de Cattan, translated as The Geomancie of Maister Christopher Cattan Gentleman. This was successful also in a 1591 English translation, by Francis Sparry.
