Answer 1

Not much is known about Pythagoras personally, although he is believed to have lived in Greece during the 6th Century BCE, and had an esoteric school in modern-day southern Italy, who were vegetarians...

This pre-Socratic individual, is considered to be the Father of Philosophy. He was apparently educated in Egypt, which is where he transported his knowledge of geometry from. He also taught the concept of reincarnation to his students...
