Greek science

Japanese: ギリシア科学 - ぎりしあかがく
Greek science
A general term for the sciences promoted and developed by the ancient Greeks. It has a history spanning almost 2,000 years, having been formed in the ancient Greek cultural sphere and passed down to Byzantium, Arabia, Medieval Europe, and the Renaissance.
[The formation and development of Greek science]
Ancient Greek science was born in the 6th century BCE in Ionia, a colony on the coast of Asia Minor. The colony bordered the more advanced civilizations of the Orient and absorbed many cultural legacies from there, but it also created a new form of knowledge that distinguished it from the Orient.

[ギリシア科学の形成と展開]
 古代ギリシア科学は,前6世紀に小アジア沿岸の植民地イオニアに誕生した。ここはオリエントの先進文明圏に接しており,そこから多くの文化遺産を受け入れたが,オリエントとは一線を画する新たな知の形態がつくり出された。
