Judging from the article on
Arabic, a book written in, or translated into, Arabic would probably be the first thing written in Arabic, predating all the inscriptions and papyri mentioned in that article. So the dates in this paragraph are doubtful, at best. I made the correction to Buzjani, based on his dates in the article
Abu al-Wafa' Buzjani.
What is pythagoreanism?
Please tell me in the lede what it is.

Influence on Christianity
It claims 1st century Christianity was influenced by Platonism/Neopythagoreanism (does not distinguish between the two) twice, with no sources. The only first century Christian texts are the New Testament, Letter of Barnabas, and 1 Clement, which would relate more to Stoicism if anything. And proceeds to cite no Christian source prior to the Middle Ages (Pseudo-Dionysius - a neo-Platonist) except Clement of Alexandria on asceticism and the Sentences of Sextus (2nd century) on values. The only texts that reflect either the cosmological/numerological or ethical ideas of the neo-Pythagoreans come from the 2nd century (Gnostics like Valentinus, Marcion, etc; Clement of Alexandria, etc). So I've eliminated references to the first century until there's a source.
