Guido Bonatti from Forlì (XIII century) was a famous Italian astronomer and astrologer.
He was the most celebrated astrologer in Europe, in his century.
He was advisor of Frederick II, Holy Roman Emperor, of Ezzelino da Romano III and of Guido da Montefeltro.
He served some cities, too: Florence, Siena and Forlì.
The book Liber Astronomicus by Bonatti was reputed "the most important astrological work produced in Latin in the 13th century" (Lynn Thorndike).
He also appears in Dante's "The Divine Comedy" where he is in hell as punishment for his astrology.
