Metal. The elements as described by the Greek philosophers are earth, fire, water, and air. The Chinese, on the other hand, did acknowledge metal as one of the elements (earth, wood, fire, water, and metal).

Metal was thought to be a combination of earth and fire. Therefore metal was not one of the basic elements.
