Which one for the first thinkers to form Free will in antiquity was also well-known for formulation of an atomic theory of the universe?
Free will in antiquity Free will in antiquity was not discussed in the same terms as used in the modern free will debates, but historians of the problem have speculated who exactly was first to take positions as determinist, libertarian, and compatibilist in antiquity. There is wide agreement that these views were essentially fully formed over 2000 years ago. Candidates for the first thinkers to form these views, as well as the idea of a non-physical "agent-causal" libertarianism, include Democritus (460–370), Aristotle (384–322), Epicurus (341–270), Chrysippus (280–207), and Carneades (214–129).
Ptolemais of Cyrene Ptolemais of Cyrene (Ancient Greek: Πτολεμαῒς ἡ Κυρηναία ) was a harmonic theorist, author of "Pythagorean Principles of Music" (Πυθαγορικὴ τῆς μουσικῆς στοιχείωσις). She lived perhaps in the 3rd century BC, and "certainly not after the first century AD."
