In approximately 500 BC there appears to have been an uprising against the power of the Pythagoreans. A mob cruised the city of Croton burning, looting and killing. Pythagoras fled and died one of two alternative deaths. The first version saw him chased by rebels until he was caught because he refused to cross a bean field, and then killed. The second had him fleeing to Metapontum, a city up the coast of Italy, where he took refuge in the Temple of the Muses and died of starvation.

Pythagoras migrated to southern Italy about 532 BC, apparently to escape Samos' tyrannical rule, and established his ethico-political academy at Croton (now Crotona). He died about 500 BC at Metapontum in Lucania.
