Were Heraclitus, Parmenides, Plato or Aristotle's philosophy theistic?

I take this to be a good example of a "mu" question, at least one that doesn't have a clear cut answer because of intellectual evolution.

We all remember that Pirsig, following Aristotle, said that "first philosophy" is called "metaphysics." We should bear in mind that Aristotle's redactor is the one that named that collection of manuscripts "Metaphysics." What did Aristotle actually call "first philosophy" in the Metaphysics?

Theology.

Matt
