| This article is about philosopher. You may be looking for the self-proclaimed god Empedokles. |
Empedocles (c. 494 – c. 434 BCE) was a Greek philosopher who lived in Greek Sicily during the 5th century BCE. He recorded his ideas in the poetic work, On Nature.
In 1193, the Templar Maria Thorpe quoted the philosopher to Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad while she was his captive.[1]
During the early 16th century, the Assassin Ezio Auditore da Firenze retrieved a hidden copy of this book in Constantinople.[2]
