Best Answer

Science in the form that we understand it nowadays appeared only in the 18th century. This period was marked by institutionalization of science, when science became a kind of professional activity and one of the leading factors of society development.

Before the 18th century, science existed in the form of scientific knowledge which was fragmentary and not universal.

If to speak about Ancient Times in terms of a certain period in history - the Ancient World from the earliest known civilizations to the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in 476 A.D., Ancient science means all the scientific knowledge that was discovered and existed from the beginning of our civilization up to 476 AD. From this year on starts Medieval Science.
