How were the points of the Celsius scale initially?

Did you know that the way we use the Celsius temperature scale today is not exactly the way that Anders Celsius introduced?

It has been know that when Anders Celsius invented the temperature scale, he put 100 degrees as the point for freezing and 0 degrees as the point for boiling.

After his death in 1744, another scientist, Carl Linnaeus, changed the scale to the way we read it today.
