Egyptian Pytagoras

We can consider a biographical moment of life of Pytagoras, this is travel to Egypt, and a step of life of Pytagoras of Iamblic, where Thalete solicited him to come to Egypt: “…Thelete exorted him to travel to Egypt, and meet priest of Memphis and Diospoli…” and “…by these herself has took what is necessary to called wiser person…” I think that this step of Iamblic is very important to know origin of very famous theorem of Pytagoras, because we must consider that this learning of geometry is alone Egyptian , and thereupon we have two sources of this theorem, these are Thalete and Egyptian, but twice are Egyptian origin, because Thalete said that: “…by these herself has took what is necessary to called wiser person…”, thereupon also Thelete has had in Egyptian, and he has took all necessary from Egyptian science, as indeed Hippocrates was going to take medical science, and he to this travel gone to Sidon, and there with others wise he took other information about other matters, and other Egyptian step : “he known that religious rites of that town  were important and derived from Egyptian…”, and other step very important: “ There(Egypt) he moved he visited all temples with greater interest and attention and he took admiration sympathy to priest and prophets, and asking the teaching about every thing…”; this is step is very important because to build pyramid and temples were necessary deep knowledge about geometry and general mathematics, therefore he has certainly asked about these science and he has could take knowledge about geometry from direct sources; thereupon the theorem that we know of Pytagoras is certainly from Egypt, in fact other step of this biography says: "...in the intern of temple he studying astronomy and geometry; thereupon matter of theorenm of Pytagoras; and I consider impossible that during 22 years passed in Egypt nobody has informed him about these geometrical theory and other; we must consider that, in conformity of Egyptian costume, every knowledge was keep in secret, because it was destined alone very little, this is architects, and people not certainly know it, but Phitagoras was aristocratic man and access to these secrets was very easy; therefore both before and after, the Egypt, he has passed 22 years, has educated the ancient Greek, both medical science, Hippocrates and geometry, this is Pytagoras.
