METRODORUS OF CHIOS
Μητρόδωρος ὁ Χίος. (4th BCE.) Atomist, student of Nessus of Chios or of Democritus (Diogenes Laertius IX.58); he is said to have taught Diogenes of Smyrna who taught Anaxarchus. Metrodorus’ philosophy was strongly Skeptical. According to Cicero (Academica, ii. 23 § 73) he said, “We know nothing, no, not even whether we know or not.” Aetius preserves a particularly interesting fragment: “A single ear of wheat in a large field is as strange as a single world in infinite space” (Placita I.5.4).
See also CHIOS.
