The Temple of Pythagoras was an ancient temple built by the Pythagoreans, the followers of Pythagoras. It could be accessed through a hidden catacomb beneath Rome, and led to one of the Temples built by the First Civilization, the Pythagorean Vault. The Pythagoreans believed that the forces of nature could be translated into numbers, and that mathematics could allow man to harness nature's power. The temple was said to contain the Pythagorean Unifier, the perfect number that was coupled to everything in nature, and could open the minds of men.
