Pythagorean work was sown through Europe in secret orders which explains the blank spot in history, a practice without egoism, prominence or power. A silent phase of hylozoics gradually developed requisite qualities of initiates individually which was not publicly recognized nor written into records for posterity. Consciousness development of qualities was secretly rationalized by initiates. Knowledge of reincarnation was excluded and banished by the Roman church and intervening cultures focussed on status rather than self development like treating of psychologically veiled repulsions. Pythagoras' small colony was destroyed thousands of years ago, and the modern vicinity is viewd by arial photo to generally see the landscape around Laurency's reference, "outside the town of Taormina in Sicily".
