Aristotle held the view that there were five elements: fire, water, air, earth, Aether. Fire was hot. Water was wet. Air was light. Earth was cool and heavy. Aether was divine. Aristotle has since been proven wrong in this area because we have zoomed in and broadened our views of the elements.

The Greek philosopher Anaxagoras (ca. 500-ca. 428 B.C.) was the first to formulate a molecular theory of matter and to regard the physical universe as subject to the rule of rationality or reason. Anaxagoras was born on the Ionian coast of Asia Minor in the town of Clazomenae, near Smyrna (now Izmir, Turkey).

What is the contribution of thales of miletus in the development of atomic theory?
The contribution of anyone prior to about 1600 to the development of atomic theory might as well be "nothing whatsoever." Democritus and/or Leucippus contributed the name "atomos", but not much else; they were wrong about nearly every detail. John Dalton is just about the earliest scientist to have had any significant contribution to atomic theory, and most of what we now consider atomic theory was developed since about 1900.
