A.E.B. de Chancourtois attempted to organise the elements by atomic weight using a cylindrical representation, and he called this arrangement the Telluric Helix. He proposed this system in 1862. In the Telluric Helix, elements were arranged around a cylinder in order of increasing atomic weight, with a single loop corresponding to a revolution around the cylinder.
