{{Short description|Italian mathematical society}}
The Circolo Matematico di Palermo (Mathematical Circle of Palermo) is an Italian mathematical society, founded in Palermo by Sicilian geometer Giovanni B. Guccia in 1884.[http://www-history.mcs.st-and.ac.uk/Societies/Palermo.html The Mathematical Circle of Palermo], MacTutor History of Mathematics archive. Retrieved 2011-06-19. It began accepting foreign members in 1888, and by the time of Guccia's death in 1914 it had become the foremost international mathematical society, with approximately one thousand members.{{citation|page=656|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=mC9GcTdHqpcC&pg=PA656|title=Rainbow of Mathematics: A History of the Mathematical Sciences|first=Ivor|last=Grattan-Guinness|publisher=W.
