Milesian school of thought did Thales, Anaximander, and Anaximenes establish.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

Thales, Anaximander, and Anaximenes were the first three Ionian philosophers. They showed great interest in the environment and they possessed a wide knowledge in the field of Science. They were trying to make the people comprehensive of the things happening around them. They were the creators of the Milesian school of philosophy.

They all belonged to the city of Miletus of Greece. Their works were identified by the successors who quoted about their contribution to Science. They believed that there was an external motion which led to the creation of the world. Thales was famous by the way he accurately predicted the eclipse. Anaximander was the first man to frame a map. Anaximenes had a good influence on Pythagoras.
