Ancient Greek science is a modern term for the application of systematic inquiry into the individual, the world, and the universe, which began in Ionia in the 6th century BCE with Thales of Miletus (l. c. 585 BCE) and continued through the work of the astronomer Ptolemy (l. 100-170 CE) to form the foundation of modern scientific method. #History #ThalesOfMiletus #Syracusia #Science #HistoryFacts https://www.worldhistory.org/Greek_Science/
