There were only four noteworthy observers of Mars in the first 170 years of the telescope.  Cassini (the first to measure the daily rotation period of Mars); Hooke, Huygens (whose drawings of the Mars are the first to depict known features, but which were not published at the time and only came to light in the 20th century) and Maraldi. (Paraphrased from Linda Hall Library online piece on Maraldi)  "(Maraldi) published a paper in the Memoires.in 1706, which contained three drawings of the surface of Mars.and another in 1720 .which has four drawings.These are the first published drawings to show features of Mars that we can recognize.  (Cassini) published several drawings (on the same plate in the same journal where Hooke published his sketches), and we know Cassini must have seen real features, because he was able to measure the rotation speed, but we cannot recognize anything in his drawings.The most recognizable [drawing] is the triangular shape in the second set of drawings .which is without doubt the feature we now call Syrtis Major."--Dr. William B.
