Did the Greeks invent the first optical illusion?

The Greeks are often credited with some of the earliest studies of visual perception and optical phenomena, but they did not invent the first optical illusion. Concepts of optical illusions can be traced back even further, with examples found in ancient art and architecture, such as the use of forced perspective in Greek temples. However, Greek philosophers like Plato and Aristotle contributed significantly to the understanding of visual perception, influencing later discussions about illusions.
