Xenophilus
Xenophilus ((ギリシア語:Ξενόφιλος); 4th century BC) of Chalcidice, was a Pythagorean philosopher and musician, who lived in the first half of the 4th century BC.〔Kathleen Freeman, 1983, ''Ancilla to the pre-Socratic philosophers'', page 81, Harvard University Press〕 Aulus Gellius relates that Xenophilus was the intimate friend and teacher of Aristoxenus, and implies that Xenophilus taught him Pythagorean doctrine.〔Aulus Gellius, ''Noctes Atticae'', iv. 11〕 He was said to have belonged to the last generation of Pythagoreans, and he is the only Pythagorean known to have lived in Athens in the 4th century BC.〔David E. Hahm, 1977, ''The origins of Stoic cosmology'', page 225. Ohio State University Press〕 We learn from Diogenes Laërtius that Aristoxenus wrote that when Xenophilus was once asked by someone how he could best educate his son, Xenophilus replied, "By making him the citizen of a well-governed state."〔Diogenes Laërtius, viii. 15-16〕 According to Pseudo-Lucian, Aristoxenus is supposed to have said that Xenophilus lived 105 years.〔Pseudo-Lucian, ''Macrobii'', 18; cf. Valerius Maximus, viii. c. 13, Pliny, ''Naturalis Historia'', vii. 50〕 Xenophilus enjoyed considerable fame in the Renaissance, apparently because of Pliny's claim that he lived 105 years without ever being sick.〔Kevin Patrick Siena, ''Sins of the flesh: responding to sexual disease in early modern Europe'', page 95.
