•460 B.C. did a Greek philosopher, Democritus, made the idea of atoms. He asked this question: "If you break a piece of matter in half, and then break it in half again, how many breaks will you have to make before you can break it no further?" Democritus thought that it ended at some point, a smallest possible bit of matter. He called these basic matter particles, atoms.

I doubt he had any opinion on that.
