Original Note:
The post statement is false. Spherical Earth or Earth's curvature refers to the approximation of figure of the Earth as a sphere. The earliest documented mention of the concept dates from around the 5th century BC, when it appears in the writings of Greek philosophers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_Earth
