Personal life and family
Whilst Pythias' date of birth is unclear, she was active around 355 BC[2] and she died in Athens sometime after 330 BC. Aristotle and Pythias had a daughter, Pythias the Younger.
Pythias the Younger
Pythias the Younger married three times, but is also said to have predeceased her father. Her first husband was Nicanor, Aristotle's nephew by his sister Arimneste. According to Aristotle's will, Nicanor was to manage the family affairs until his son, Nicomachus came of age. Pythias' second husband was Procles of Sparta. Pythias' third husband was Metrodorus, a physician; Diogenes Laertius relates that they had a son named Aristotle. [3]
