Leucippus.

Miletus, Elea, and Abdera have all been suggested as places

where Leucippus lived, but these are most likely described as
his home city because of their associations with other
philosophers: Miletus was associated with the Ionian School that
influenced Leucippus, Elea was associated with the Eleatic
philosophers whom Leucippus challenged, and Abdera was the
home of his student Democritus. Some 20th-century classicists
such as Walther Kranz and John Burnet have suggested that he
lived in all three cities—that he was born in Miletus before
studying under Zeno in Elea and then settling in Abdera.
Philosophy
Atoms
Leucippus is credited with developing the philosophical school
of atomism. He proposed that all things are made up of
microscopic, indivisible particles that interact and combine to
produce all the things of the world. The atoms postulated by
Leucippus come in infinitely many shapes and sizes, although
the size and shape of each atom is fixed and unchanging. They
are in a state of constant motion and continuously change
arrangements with one another. He reasoned that there must be
infinite types of atoms because there is no reason why there
should not be.
According to the 4th-century BCE philosopher Aristotle,
Leucippus argued that logically there must be indivisible points
in everything. His reasoning was that if an object was made
entirely of divisible points, then it would not have any structure
and it would be intangible. Leucippus developed atomism along
with his student, Democritus; while Leucippus is credited with
the philosophy's creation, Democritus is understood to have
elaborated upon it and applied it to natural phenomena.
Two works are attributed to Leucippus: The Great World
System and On Mind. The former may have originally been
titled The World System and then later renamed to avoid
confusion with Democritus's The Little World System.
Leucippus's The Great World System has sometimes been
attributed to Democritus. Only one extant fragment is attributed
to Leucippus, taken from On Mind: "Nothing happens at
random, but everything for a reason and by
necessity". Leucippus believed that all things must
happen deterministically, as the positions and motions of the
atoms guarantee that they will collide in a certain way, invoking
the principle of causality. This was reminiscent of the 6th-
century BCE philosopher Anaximander's argument that
movement is created by differences, and it was later codified by
the 17th-century philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz with
the principle of sufficient reason. Leucippus rejected the idea
that there was an intelligent force governing the universe.
