28 May 585 BCE - A CALENDAR-SETTING SOLAR ECLIPSE HALTS A GREEK BATTLE:
Arguably the oldest historical event that can be precisely dated, the
Eclipse of Thales is named after the Greek philosopher who's said to
have predicted the event. The eclipse is responsible for ending the
Battle of Halys, as both sides are sufficiently spooked into a
ceasefire.
