A person who can see far distances, or someone believed to have the power to predict future events; a prophet or seer.
Compound of 'far' and 'seer' (one who sees). The term developed in Middle English and Old Norse traditions describing people with purported prophetic abilities.
In medieval cultures, a farseer was literally hired by kings and nobles—it was a professional career, which tells you how seriously ancient civilizations took their desire to know the future.
