¹ Indian influence has been alleged in the philosophy of Pythagoras who must have been born in the early years of the sixth century, some fifty years before the Persian conquest of Babylon. The question is examined at length by Prof. A. B. Keith in the *J.R.A.S.* for 1909, pp. 569 f., *Pythagoras and the Doctrine of Transmigration*. Prof. Keith's conclusion is that there is no evidence for the Indian influence.
