In attempting to discover traces of a science in earliest historic times, one must first disabuse his mind of the idea that he will find it in anything like the elaborated modern form in which he knows it. These natural science are the result of a long process of evolution, and the primal form will probably prove a very much disguised one. In most cases it is idle to speak of systematic science as existing among the ancients. Unquestionably there was knowledge of isolated scientific facts, -here and there one may find a crude theory, more justly to be styled a philosopher's dream, -but of system there was none.
