Trigonometry existed 3700 years ago

Does this still mean that math promotes white supremacy?

There were many great Hebrew minds in Babylon, King Nubechdezzar was the greatest king the world has ever know. He never lost a battle, destroyed Pharo neco, destroyed Jerusalem, and took the smartest & most highly educated people captive and put them in charge of many key posts, including running other territories, and inventing things. Babalonian exile....

They wuz math mathematicians n shiiiiieeeeeeet

I just thought it was an interesting bit of history.

I apologize if the article's title offends conservative and/or Afrocentric agendas.

... What agendas?

Studies have reported that most Irish and Britons are descendants of farmers who left modern day Iraq and Syria 10,000 years ago. Genetic researchers say they have found compelling evidence that four out of five (80%) of white Europeans can trace their roots to the Near East. In another study, scientists analysed DNA from the 8,000-year-old remains of early farmers found at an ancient graveyard in Germany. They compared the genetic signatures to those of modern populations and found similarities with the DNA of people living in today's Turkey and Iraq.

Interesting bit of history? You know it don't work like that around here. There's slick bruvvas and stiff Euros

Pick a side and wage war

Neither Greeks nor black Egyptians can lay claim to this one so both sides are screwed.

3,700-year-old Babylonian tablet rewrites the history of maths - and shows the Greeks did not develop trigonometry
"The tablet, known as Plimpton 332, was discovered in the early 1900s in Southern Iraq by the American archaeologist and diplomat Edgar Banks, who was the inspiration for Indiana Jones.

The true meaning of the tablet has eluded experts until now but new research by the University of New South Wales, Australia, has shown it is the world’s oldest and most accurate trigonometric table, which was probably used by ancient architects to construct temples, palaces and canals.

However unlike today’s trigonometry, Babylonian mathematics used a base 60, or sexagesimal system, rather than the 10 which is used today. Because 60 is far easier to divide by three, experts studying the tablet, found that the calculations are far more accurate."

So you're basically telling me mofos were walking around with stone ipads in Ancient Babylon.

No surprises there. Not much else to do with your spare time back then. No distractions like television, internet, cell phones, to turn your mind to mush and suck you of your ambition.

The ancient greeks had an analog computer over 2000 years ago, it was called the antikythera mechanism, it was probably used for calculating planetary orbits. A book called The Puzzle of Ancient Man has some really good examples of this stuff. Advanced civilizations really existed thousands of years ago

Took modern technology a bit of time to figure out how it worked.

OOPA. Out Of Place Artifacts.

Or, things that flip the script on the bull**** history and evolution theory.

Example: normal human slkulls buried at a lower(older) stata than Lucy.

Good stuff as usual!

Lemme know when they find some of that advanced civilization ****
