Eurytus (; ; fl. 400 BC), was an eminent Pythagorean philosopher who Iamblichus in one passage〔Iamblichus, de Vit. Pyth. 28〕 describes as a native of Croton, while in another,〔Iamblichus, de Vit. Pyth. 36〕 he enumerates him among the Tarentine Pythagoreans. He was a disciple of Philolaus, and Diogenes Laërtius〔Diogenes Laërtius iii. 6, viii. 46〕 mentions him among the teachers of Plato, though this statement is very doubtful. It is uncertain whether Eurytus was the author of any work, unless we suppose that the fragment in Stobaeus,〔Stobaeus, Phys. Ecl. i.〕 which is there ascribed to one Eurytus, belongs to this Eurytus. Aristotle, (''Metaphysics'' 1092b) mentions Eurytus, speaking about points as limits of spatial magnitude: Alexander of Aphrodisias elaborates further: According to the historian's from the ''Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy'', ''Philolaus'' and ''Eurytus'' are identified by Aristoxenus as teachers of the last generation of Pythagoreans (D. L. VIII 46).''〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Philolaus )〕 A Echecrates is mentioned by ''Aristoxenus'' as a student of ''Philolaus'' and ''Eurytus''.
