'''Pythagoras''' lived from 582 to 507 BC. He was a Greek mathematician and philosopher, for whom the [[Pythagorean Theorem]] is named.  He did not actually discover the Pythagorean Theorem, however, the [[Mesopotamia]]ns had it first. He was also an astronomer and a musician. He sought to reduce music and astronomy to numerical patterns. He believed in a concept of translating musical notes into mathematical equations and vice versa called Pythagorean tuning by use of the ratio 3:2. He also believed that the mathematical motions of the planets in outer space produced a cosmic musical symphony that he called the harmony of the spheres.
