The Sphinx and Thales According to the Greek historian Herodotus, the ancient Greek philosopher Thales of Miletus correctly predicted that a solar eclipse would occur during a battle between the Medes and the Lydians in 585 BCE. Some versions of the story claim that Thales learned of the eclipse from Egyptian priests who observed celestial phenomena near the Sphinx. @WaterWiseDefenders
