When was it first known that the seasons were in reverse from eachother in the north and south hemisphere?

I was thinking about this a few days ago but I couldn't find any difinitive answers from a Google search. As the title says, what is the first record of someone knowing some things were different in the other hemisphere? That the seasons were opposite, the sun was in the other direction etc.

How did they first explain it at the time? When did people really believe it and when did it become common accepted at truth? When did someone first figure out the explanation we use today?

Please don't feel obliged to answer all of these questions, just one of them or some type of information would be great. Thanks.

Hi, you may be interested in /u/qed1's reply in this thread from a few weeks ago

When was it discovered that seasons are opposite in the southern hemisphere? How did early travellers from the north react to seeing winter mid June?

As an addition to u/Searocksandtrees 's great suggestion, I also wrote an earlier answer here about writings on the reversed seasons by the Jesuit José de Acosta, writing in Peru in the late 16th century. The focus is on how the experience of the reversed seasons made Acosta question views of classical scholars including Aristotle.
