L'origine des mathématiques ? L'os d'Ishango.

The Ishango bone is a unique archaeological object. It has generated much discussion due to the multitude of theories that have been developed about it. For some, it is the "prehistoric calculator," the ultimate proof of the African origin of prime numbers, of base 3, 4, and 12 numeration; the ancestor of the Babylonian counting system. And for others, this object should not be seen as anything more than what a critical eye could objectively discern. I invite you to take a look at all this together. Take a seat with me near the Great Lakes region of the Democratic Republic of Congo, 25,000 years ago. Tipeee page: https://fr.tipeee.com/cogito-ergo-sum Thank you for your support!
