he (with his atomist buds) was the first to theorize that the world was composed of indivisible and immutable material atoms (a unitary changless substance). he was only ((potentially)) wrong about them being infinite in number ie 1D (but this is how we still model simple atomic interactions much of the time anyway). also instead of an intelligent mind governing everything, he correctly believed they moved about in a void by their random collisions and in different combinations to make up all of the visible world

also he was correct that atoms were only quantitative and qualities were subjective human constructs and thus emergent properties.

epirucus and some others took this and correctly guessed that atoms do have mass and were instead finite, before it was possible to know such a thing

this guy has the biggest TOLD U SO in the history of humanity
