Pythagoras best-known from his ‘Pythagorean Theorem’ was a mathematician, cosmologist, teacher, theologist, philosopher, and more. He’s also developed a system for musical tuning that’s still used today, has had an influence on the world of food science due to his theories on dietary restrictions, and was the very first person to divide the earth into five different climate zones. The man did everything!  While it would be a joy to talk about the life of such an impressive man, sadly there is almost nothing about his life that can be known for certain. None of his work and writings - not a single one - have been preserved. Instead, all we know from Pythagoras comes from texts written by Aristotle or Plato, who have both been influenced by this legendary ancient philosopher. But despite the little documentation, enough has been preserved to make Pythagoras the legendary figure that he is today - even without his books still with us, he’s influenced and helped evolve a few of the most important fields of human knowledge.
