Aristotle wrote several books on physics and Andronicus of Rhodes placed several of Aristotle’s more philosophical works after these books. Andronicus labelled these works as “the books that come after the physics” and the Latin scholars thought it meant “the science of what is beyond the physical”, hence “metaphysics”.
Aristotle never used the term “metaphysics”. Instead his works labelled as metaphysics is what he labelled as “first philosophy”. Aristotle most probably borrowed from the terms philosophus and philosophia that were first employed by Pythagoras (in Cicero’s Tusculan Disputations). Philosophy roughly meant to Pythogoras as the pursuit of wisdom. The term philosophy then in turn changed to signify wisdom and the love of it, which was seen as the highest kind of knowledge.
