I'm kinda frustrated with early academic treatments (Ritter, Ueberweg) that discount the biographical tradition and Pythagoras' travels in Phoenicia, Egypt, and Persia (detailed by Iamblichus) because they'd like to see Pythagoreanism as an innate development of the Greek mind rather than something imported from the East. Compared to those treatments that I've recently read, this was a breath of fresh air. This was excellent, thank you.

Maybe Pythagoras is a good example of a self-fulfilling prophecy, a phenomenon which we encounter frequently in ancient mythology. In a sense what Mnesarchus heard at Delphi was actually what he wished for his son. By providing adequate resources to his son he made the prophecy come true. Thank you for doing this.
