《Numbers: Their Occult Power and Mystic Virtue》數字的神秘象徵 (Occult Power of Numbers)William Wynn Westcott (1890)
17. In the treatise " Dc Iside et Osiride," Plutarch says Osiris was killed on the 17th day of the moon, and hence when the moon was at the full — and from that reason the Egyptians abominate the number 17, and so did the P3'thagoreans — they called it Antiphraxis (obstruction), because it falls between the square number 16 and the oblong number 18.
