v ' Of Miletus, the most ancient of the Greek philosophers, and the 

 founder of the Jonian school of Philosophy. He is said to have written 

 upon the Solstice and the Equinox, and a work on Astronomy, in verse, 

 was also attributed to him. It is, however, more generally believed, that 

 he left no written works behind him, and that those attributed to him 

 wic forgeries. * See end of B. ii.

 astronomer of this name, a native of Naxos, and a friend of Eudoxus of
