[PAR] [TLE] Leucippus [SEP] Leucippus ( ; Greek: Λεύκιππος , "Leúkippos"; fl.  5th cent.  BCE) is reported in some ancient sources to have been a philosopher who was the earliest Greek to develop the theory of atomism—the idea that everything is composed entirely of various imperishable, indivisible elements called atoms. Leucippus often appears as the master to his pupil Democritus, a philosopher also touted as the originator of the atomic theory.  However, a brief notice in Diogenes Laertius’s life of Epicurus says that on the testimony of Epicurus, Leucippus never existed.  As the philosophical heir of Democritus, Epicurus's word has some weight, and indeed a controversy over this matter raged in German scholarship for many years at the close of the 19th century.  Furthermore, in his "Corpus Democriteum", Thrasyllus of Alexandria, an astrologer and writer living under the emperor Tiberius (14–37 CE), compiled a list of writings on atomism that he attributed to Democritus to the exclusion of Leucippus.  The present consensus among the world's historians of philosophy is that this Leucippus is historical.  The matter must remain moot unless more information is forthcoming from the record. [PAR] [TLE] Lynceus (Argonaut) [SEP] In Greek mythology, Lynceus or (Ancient Greek: Λυγκεύς ) was the jealous murderer of Castor, along with his brother, Idas.  Idas and Lynceus murdered Castor because they all (along with Polydeuces) sought Phoebe and Hilaeira, daughters of Leucippus (who was also Idas and Lynceus' uncle in some versions).  Lynceus was one of the Argonauts and he participated in the hunt for the Calydonian Boar.  He was a son of Aphareus and Arene and was said to have excellent sight, even able to see through trees, walls and underground.
