The popular view is that Charles Darwin originated the Theory of Evolution. In fact, he was the first to explain in detail just how evolution of species occurs.

One of the early pioneers of evolutionary theory is Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, who suspected as early as 1795 that what we call species are various degenerations of the same type. There were probably other pioneers even before 1795, and certainly there were several working on the concept well before Darwin published his The Origin of Species.
