Anton Felkel (26 April 1740 to about 1800) was an Austrian mathematician who worked on the determination of prime numbers. He was born at Kamenz in Silesia and is thought to have died in Lisbon, Portugal. In 1776 and 1777 Felkel published a table giving the complete prime factorizations of all integers from 1 to 408,000 that are not divisible by 2, 3 or 5. He had planned to extend the table to 10 million.
