There are many important academics and historical figures living in this period

Ancient Greek civilization was a time of political, intellectual, artistic, and scientific achievements that left an indelible mark on Western culture. For example, Ancient Greece was home to a plethora of academics and historical figures. The Greeks were the first Western civilization to believe in logical answers to life's most pressing problems. During this time period, beliefs about nature were hypothesized that incorporated myths and religion as well as science. Those now regarded as the first scientists may have considered themselves natural philosophers, practitioners of a skilled trade, or adherents of a religious tradition. Hippocrates, Aristotle, Euclid, Archimedes, Hipparchus, Galen, and Ptolemy were among the most well-known figures active during this time period. Their contributions and interpretations were diffused throughout the Eastern, Islamic, and Latin civilizations, and they helped to birth modern science. Their works ranged across numerous disciplines, including mathematics, cosmology, medicine, and physics.


According to Joshua J. Mark ( a writer of worldhistory.org), Western philosophy (Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle), literature (Homer and Hesiod), mathematics (Pythagoras and Euclid), history (Herodotus), drama (Sophocles, Euripides, and Aristophanes), the Olympic Games, and democracy all originated in Ancient Greece. The concept of an atomic cosmos was first proposed in Greece by Democritus and Leucippus. Thales of Miletus and those who followed him were the first to introduce the modern scientific method. The Latin alphabet was also introduced to the region through Phoenician colonization in the 8th century BCE, and early work in physics and engineering was pioneered by Archimedes, of the Greek colony of Syracuse, among others.
