To exemplify the adequacy of a finitistic approach to geometry, motivated by early Greek an Roman applications to architecture (Agatharcus, Vitruvius, etc.), the author presents a quantifier-free axiom system for affine geometry, similar to his earlier one [Synthese 125, 263-281 (2000; Zbl 0967.03053)].
