If you cannot, could you guide me to some resources that may give me a sense of how he came by this notion. Transmigration of the soul or metempsychosis (from the Greek meta en psyche ) to Westerners today means being reincarnated after death into another body, but to the Pythagoreans, it had to do with the soul's remembering the divine, and was linked with mathematics, according to W.K.C. Guthrie's review of Alister Cameron "Early Pythagoreanism," in The Classical Review The ancient account for life after death did not include the immediate transmigration of the soul into a resurrected body.

Pythagoras of Samos, often described as the first pure mathematician, is indeed one of the best known Greek mathematicians.

The Life of Pythagoras He was the leader of a society which was both religious and scientific, however it was cloaked in secrecy. It had an inner circle known as the mathematikoi. All Pythagoreans were vegetarian, could not eat beans or wear clothing made from animal skin. If you ever read different books, written by different scholars about Pythagoras; you are sure to see different dates for the same events in his life. These dates will differ by 20 or even 30 years. However, when you consider he was born over 2500 years ago, it is not surprising these dates are disputed. He was one of three (though some say four) sons of Mnesarchus, a merchant from Tyre. His fathers job gave him the chance to travel as a young boy. His tutor, Pherekydes, would become his greatest influence.

home index ancient Greece Pythagoras Pythagoras ( Musei Capitolini , Roma) Pythagoras of Samos (c.570-c.495): almost legendary Greek philosopher. Like his older contemporary Thales of Miletus , Pythagoras of Samos was looking for a first cause, but their approach was different. Thales was thinking of something concrete, water; Pythagoras, on the other hand, believed in a more abstract approach - numerals. According to legend, Pythagoras left his country and studied with the wise men of Egypt, but was taken captive when the Persian king Cambyses invaded the country of the Nile (525). He now became a student of the Chaldaeans of Babylon and the Magians of Persia. Some even say that he visited the Indian Brahmans, because Pythagoras believed in reincarnation, but this is almost certainly impossible, although he may have met Indian sages at the court of the Persian king Darius I the Great At the end of the sixth century, Pythagoras lived in southern Italy, where he founded a community of philosophers. In his view, our world was governed by numbers, and was therefore essentially harmonious. It is very difficult to know more about the philosophy of Pythagoras. The famous Pythagorean theorem is certainly not his invention, as it was known in Egypt and Babylonia at least a millennium earlier.
