*** What is Pythagoras Cup?

The Pythagorean cup or (Pythagoras cup, Greedy cup, Cup of Justice greek: i koupa tis dikaiosynis) is a drinking cup made from the Famous Greek Pythagoras. This cup has a mechanism that can control measures of a drink. A Pythagorean cup looks like a normal drinking cup, except that the bowl has a central column in it. The central column of the bowl is positioned directly over the stem of the cup and over a hole at the bottom of the stem. A small open pipe runs from this hole almost to the top of the central column, where there is an open chamber. The chamber is connected by a second pipe to the bottom of the central column, where a hole in the column exposes the pipe to (the contents of) the bowl of the cup. Most modern toilets operate on the same principle: when the water level in the bowl rises high enough, a siphon is created emptying the bowl.

*** Who was Pythagoras?

Pythagoras of Samos (c. 570 – c. 495 BC) was an ancient Greek philosopher and the eponymous founder of Pythagoreanism. His political and religious teachings were well known in Magna Graecia and influenced the philosophies of Plato, Aristotle, and through them, Western philosophy. Beginning in the 6th century BC with the Pythagoreans, with Greek mathematics the Ancient Greeks began a systematic study of mathematics as a subject in its own right. Around 300 BC, Euclid introduced the axiomatic method still used in mathematics today, consisting of definition, axiom, theorem, and proof.
