In this paper we investigate the contribution of Dehn to the development of non-Archimedean geometries. We will see that it is possible to construct some models of non-Archimedean geometries in order to prove the independence of the continuity axiom and we will study the interrelations between Archimedes’ axiom and Legendre’s theorems. Some of these interrelations were also studied by Bonola, who was one of the very few Italian scholars to appreciate Dehn’s work. We will see that, if Archimedes’...
