Aristotle
Greek philosopher ARISTOTLE was famed for his observations of nature, including bees from his own hives. Though not always perfectly accurate, Aristotle's observations were for many years the basis of western knowledge about the animal kingdom. In his text A History of Animals Aristotle describes drones and ruler bees (though he calls them kings rather than queens), the order of a hive, and the making of honey.
