Inscriptions found in a 3,700-year old clay tablet prove Babylonians beat the Greeks in mastering trigonometry by at least 1,000 years Experts believe they have cracked the code of a 3,700-year old Babylonian relic They say it is the world's oldest and most accurate trigonometric table Ancient Mesopotamians used it to to calculate how to build public works The Plimpton 322 tablet predates Greek mathematician Hipparchus, known as the father of trigonometry, by more than a millennia
Mena:I think The Black Ancient Egyptians Priests invented the science of mathematics and taught it to the Black Ancient Babylonians and Indians. The Ancient Egyptians and Babylonians Priests taught mathematics to the Black, Brown and White Greeks. according to the Greek philosopher Pythagoras aka Ptah Wor meaning God Ptah is great in Ancient Egyptian stated the Universe is number. I guess if somebody know mathematics they can invent anything. Since science build on top of science the great mechanical, electronic, civil engineering and aeronautical invention of the modern world can be connected to the Black Ancient Egyptians and Babylonians invention of mathematics.
A mathematical mystery hidden for almost four millennia on a clay tablet has finally been solved, according to Australian researchers. Experts believe they have cracked the code of a 3,700-year old Babylonian relic known as Plimpton 322 (pictured)
Dr Daniel Mansfield (pictured) says Plimpton 3322 shows that the ancient Mesopotamian culture beat the Greeks to trigonometry, the study of triangles, by more than 1,000 years. He believes it is the world's oldest and most accurate trigonometric table
erhaps the most famous example of trigonometry at work is Pythagoras' theorem of right-angle triangles. This image shows a bust of of Pythagoras of Samos that is housed in the Capitoline Museums, Rome
