in Athens to an aristocratic family, though little is known of his early life.
He was a large, athletic, intelligent man, who could have succeeded in any
number of calling. He became a student Socrates, and devoted
himself chiefly to philosophy. He traveled widely, then sometime before
368 B.C. he founded on
land which had belonged to Academos, a school of learning which being situated
in the grove of Academos was called the Academy. He presided over his
Academy in Athens, an institution devoted to research and instruction in
philosophy and the sciences until his death. After his death the
Academy continued to flourished for over 900 years until in 529 AD when it
was closed down by Emperor Justinian who claimed it was a pagan
establishment.
