In tuning theory, "Pythagorean" has come to be almost synonymous with a [[3-limit]], pure [[just intonation]] approach to tuning. However, because "Pythagorean" and "Pythagoras'" have been applied to so many different concepts over the centuries, a lot of these terms are a little bit ill-defined, with potential for confusion around what exactly someone means when they say "Pythagorean tuning" or something of the sort.
