The Pythagoreans. About five centuries B.C. the school founded by the Greek philosopher, mathematician and astronomer Pythagoras flourished in Samos, Greece. The Pythagoreans believed (but failed to prove) that the universe could be understood in terms of whole numbers. This belief stemmed from observations in music, mathematics and astronomy.
Not too much is known about Pythagorasâ early life. Some scholars believe he was born on the island of Samos and that his father was either a merchant of some kind or a lapidist. His motherâs name might have been Pythais. An oracle told her she would give birth to a well-favored son. It is possible that Pythagoras had a variety of teachers as a boy and a young man.
