Anaximander

Traces of the amazing spirit of curiosity, who made the Greek teachers in other fields, we find here, but the lack of systematic observations denies the value of their geological guesswork. Remarkably, among the Greek thinkers, we find two predecessors, Darwin. Anaximander, who was born in 610 BC, taught that man comes from other kinds of animals: among all living beings he alone is difficult livelihood, and therefore inevitably had to be killed if he had from the outset was similar to what is now. Anaximander suggests that man evolved from fish or other aquatic animals like them. Unfortunately, we do not have more precise information about the teachings of the philosopher: his works are lost, and the one listed above, extracted from a random quote from one compiler later period.
