Christoph Cellarius (1634 or 1638 - 1707) was a German classical scholar who held positions in Weimar and Halle. The term Middle Ages (medium aevum) is attributed to him. Cellarius wrote in a textbook fashion. His writings finally organized Western history according to the new concept of three stages. His Universal History Divided into an Ancient, Medieval, and New Period, absorbed the previous religious, Christian histories into general, secular history.
