====================
Pyrrhonism, philosophy of Skepticism derived from Pyrrho of Elis (c. 370–c. 272 bce), generally regarded as the founder of ancient Skepticism. He identified as wise men those who suspend judgment (practice epoche) and take no part in the controversy regarding the possibility of certain knowledge.
