Not the same period. Please quote from a science book pertaining to the period at least of Died c. 1200 BCE. Right? Please

But out best estimate for the writing of the Pentateuch is that it was written either just before or during the Babylonian exile of the 6th century BCE, and the Priestly final edition was made late in the Exilic period or soon after.

Around the time of Aesop (620 – 564 BCE), strangely enough.

Or even the poster writing it exists.

Please rephrase, your meaning is not clear.

So that means that Anaximander fulfills the request. Ball's your court paarsurrey.

In the original sense, philosophy and science would be pretty much the same thing. Sophia (greek) and Scientia (latin) had very close meanings, and were sometimes interchangeable words.
When we use the term "philosophy" nowadays we don't usually relate it, though, to a specific kind of thought that we follow, but more to a mix of philosophy history, erudition, an inquisitive perspective to the World. We usually don't use this word in the same sense that many ancient authors used, which is, trying to comprehend the world under a certain system of thought.

The notion we have of "modern science", which is nowadays understood as the same as "science" is a more practical approach to reality, that in ancient times might have better been described by "techne" (greek) and ars (latin, which origined "art"). The obvious recuse of modern science to deal with metaphysics is what binds it to the notion of what the ancients understood by "art", and not "science" - which had metaphysics as the focal point.

I would say Philosophy was Science and is now metaphisics, ethics, superstition, occult science? And Science was Art, and now is Science.

Thanks for the information.
Science is helpless it doesn't have a language of its own, and have to borrow words from languages.
Like science cannot create a word. likewise science cannot create an atom of the universe/s from nothing or annihilation, it creates nothing only discovers then its eulogizers boast about it out of proportion what it could do or it does. Please
