In his works, skepticism is presented as a comprehensive study. Sextus Empricus made significant changes in 10 tropes that proved the basics of skepticism after Enesidemus and systematized them. As we know, other ancient thinkers claim that knowledge is possible. Sextus Empirikus, continued the skepticism philosophy of the former skeptics, but claiming that knowledge was relative.
