Theophrastus was an ancient Greek philosopher and naturalist, often regarded as the "father of botany" for his extensive work on plant classification and ecology. He was a student of Aristotle and succeeded him as the head of the Lyceum in Athens. His major works include "Enquiry into Plants" and "On the Causes of Plants," which laid the groundwork for future botanical studies. Additionally, Theophrastus contributed to various fields, including ethics and metaphysics.
