    Plato died in Athens and was buried in his garden at the Academy, the philosophical community with which most of his mature work and enduring institutional legacy were associated. Death is dated 348/347 BC; 347 BC is used here. The precise grave has not been conclusively identified, so the coordinate marks the Academy archaeological site.
