Centuries passed, and someone proved that the three medians do indeed concur in a point, now called the centroid. The ancients found other points, too, now called the incenter, circumcenter and orthocenter. More centuries passed, more special points were discovered, and a definition of triangle center emerged.

The Encyclopedia of Triangle Centers (ETC) extends a list of 400 triangle centers published in the 1998 book Triangle Centers and Central Triangles.
