The Stolen History of Kemet: Pythagoras, Part One
By Dr. Josef Ben Levi
Presented by Omni-U Virtual University
Pythagoras was a Samian, the son of Mnesarchus, who was born in Samos in Ionia (580 – 500 B.C.). Samos is a Greek island in the eastern Aegean Sea. Pythagoras was the student of Pherecydes and was the first to call himself a philosopher.
In Attic, the earliest form of Greek, there are six words for “love”:
Eros- sexual passion
Philia- deep friendship
Ludus- playful love
Agape- love for everyone
Pragma- longstanding love
Philautia-or love of the self
From the feminine noun, “philia”, we get “Philo”. However, the word “Sophia”, also feminine, did not exist in Attic Greek.
Nonetheless, Pythagoras-speaking for the Sophists- derived the etymology of the word "philosophy" from the Greek words "Philo" (ϕιλο) meaning "love" and Sophos. From the first part of the word, “Philo”, we get one of the Greek words for "love" in the abstract sense.
From the second-word Sophos (σοφος)- meaning wise man- we get the word "sophisticated" or "worldly wise".; The word "philosophy* or "Philosophia" (φιλοσοφια) is often translated as "love of wisdom".

Pherecydes of Syros
Pherecydes wrote a book on cosmogony, known as the "Pentemychos"[a] or "Heptamychos"[b]. He was considered the first writer to communicate philosophical ideas in prose as opposed to verse. However, other than a few short fragments preserved in quotations from other ancient philosophers and a long fragment discovered on an Egyptian papyrus, his work is lost. However, it survived into the Hellenistic period and a significant amount of its content can be conjectured indirectly through an…more
