The influences Chaldean sciences exerted were many, and it constitutes the basis, from which western sciences evolved from.

The Greeks in particular, benefited the most from the Chaldeans. Prominent scholars such as Pythagoras, , and Hippocrates diligently studied Chaldean spirituality, numerology, astrology, and medicine respectively, translating the information into Greek.

The Romans in turn, learned from the Greeks, and after the fall of the Roman Empire, Europe obtained knowledge of the classic sciences, from the Andalusian Caliphate in southern Spain, giving rise to the renaissance period of classical learning.

In the 6th century BC, Pythagoras, the famous Greek philosopher and mathematician, traveled extensively throughout the Middle East and compiled most of the known Chaldean Numerological sciences. He was also a disciple of the great Persian saint Zoroaster.

He lived and studied for some time in Egypt, and later established a school in Kroton, Italy. His students were sworn to secrecy and were not allowed to write anything down. His passion for truth and harmony in all aspects of life, was what set him apart from all other philosophers.

Among the Greeks, he was described as a 'mystic', from the Greek word 'Mystikos', which means: 'seeing with eyes closed'. After his death, his school was burnt down and his students disbanded.

Nevertheless, Pythagoras' compilation of Chaldean knowledge, created the origins and groundwork for all future developments in Greek esotericism, via the Hermetic & Alchemical traditions.

Chaldean Astrology and Numerology spread to nearby Persia to the East, to the Syrians and Phoenicians to the West, and to the Nabataeans and Sabians to the south west. Consolidating its presence in the middle east for centuries to come.
