Magic circles were invented by the Song dynasty (960–1279) Chinese mathematician Yang Hui (c. 1238–1298). It is the arrangement of natural numbers on circles where the sum of the numbers on each circle and the sum of numbers on diameters are identical. One of his magic circles was constructed from the natural numbers from 1 to 33 arranged on four concentric circles, with 9 at the center. (Wikipedia).
What exactly is a circle? | Arithmetic and Geometry Math Foundations 28 | N J Wildberger
Moving beyond points and lines, circles are the next geometrical objects we encounter. Here we address the question of how best to introduce this important notion, strictly in the setting of rational numbers, and without metaphysical waffling about `infinite sets.' This lecture is part of

The Three/Four bridge and Apollonius duality for conics | Six: A course in pure maths 5 | Wild Egg
The Three / Four bridge plays an important role in understanding the remarkable duality discover by Apollonius between points and lines in the plane once a conic is specified. This is a purely projective construction that works for ellipses, and their special case of a circle, for parabola
