The emergence of entire western philosophical tradition can be traced back to era of ancient Greek philosophy. The evolution of philosophical concerns and critical thinking among the philosophers in ancient Greece that started somewhere around the 6th century BCE arguably played a pivotal role in the subsequent development of knowledge as we know it today.
