The early Greeks believed that everything was made of four fundamental elements: earth, air, fire, and water. This idea was popularized by philosophers like Empedocles and later influenced thinkers such as Aristotle. They theorized that these elements combined and transformed to create all matter in the universe. This framework laid the groundwork for later scientific exploration and understanding of the natural world.
