# Later lives print expulsions of the school as a civic embargo of a club

Date: 1905

## The fact

Iamblichus English describes cities driving the group out. Improving path as weakening of a civic embargo on a minority club — low confidence, stored as later narrative of pressure, not as a verified lifting of sanctions.

## Context

Twin of faction violence. Modest and legendary.

[Pythagoras](/people/pythagoras) is not the sole author of every later object, law, or museum label that uses the name. Shared work with courts, excavators, printers, spouses, officials, and later states does not erase a documented role, and it does not make an ancient person the signer of a twentieth-century statute.

## Evidence and sources

Official encyclopedia, Loeb, or heritage pages and an independent publisher independently describe this instrument.

Official or archival record: Iamblichus, Life of Pythagoras — public-domain English (https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/12868; Project Gutenberg).

## Significance

Printed expulsion-story is not a modern sanctions list.

## What is established and what is not

Established as a dated public record of this instrument.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.
