A rigorous deductive proof dates to Euclid's Elements c. 300 BCE; 600 BCE predates Pythagoras and rigorous Greek proof
Beforeestablished in its rigorous form by the Greeks around 600 BCE
Afterestablished in its rigorous form by Euclid around 300 BCE
Why: Verified body text already correctly says 'established in its rigorous form by Euclid around 300 BCE'. The '600 BCE' figures elsewhere in the article are legitimate era-range references (Babylonian period, general Greek mathematics era), not the specific fabrication. FAQ field checked, does not contain the unverified phrasing. No changes needed.
