Crotone (/kroʊˈtoʊneɪ,krəˈ-/, Italian:[kroˈtoːne]ⓘ; Crotonese: Cutrone or Cutruni) is a city and comune in Calabria, Italy.
Founded c. 710 BC as the Achaean colony of Kroton (Ancient Greek: Κρότων or Ϙρότων; Latin: Crotona), it became a great Greek city, home of the renowned mathematician-philosopher Pythagoras amongst other famous citizens, and one of the most important centres of Magna Graecia.
It was known as Cotrone from the Middle Ages until 1928, when its name was changed to the current one. In 1992, it became the capital of the newly established Province of Crotone.
