The area of study known as the history of mathematics is primarily an investigation into the origin of discoveries in mathematics and, to a lesser extent, an investigation into the
mathematical methods and notation of the past. Before the modern age and the worldwide spread of knowledge, written examples of new mathematical developments have come to light only in a few locales. From 3000 BC the
Mesopotamian states of Sumer , Akkad and Assyria, together with Ancient Egypt and Ebla began using
arithmetic , algebra and geometry for purposes of taxation, commerce, trade and also in the field of astronomy and to formulate calendars and record time.
The most ancient mathematical texts available are from Mesopotamia and
Egypt - Plimpton 322 (Babylonian c. 1900 BC), [2] the Rhind Mathematical Papyrus (Egyptian c. 2000–1800 BC)[3] and the Moscow Mathematical Papyrus (Egyptian c. 1890 BC). All of these texts mention the so-called
Pythagorean triples and so, by inference, the Pythagorean theorem, seems to be the most ancient and widespread mathematical development after basic arithmetic and geometry.
The study of mathematics as a "demonstrative discipline" begins in the 6th century BC with the
Pythagoreans , who coined the term "mathematics" from the ancient Greek
μάθημα (mathema ), meaning "subject of instruction". [4] Greek mathematics greatly refined the methods (especially through the introduction of deductive reasoning and mathematical rigor in
proofs ) and expanded the subject matter of mathematics. [5] Although they made virtually no contributions to
theoretical mathematics , the ancient Romans used applied mathematics in
surveying , structural engineering ,
mechanical engineering , bookkeeping , creation of lunar and solar calendars, and even arts and crafts. Chinese mathematics made early contributions, including a place value system and the first use of negative numbers .[6][7] The Hindu–Arabic numeral system and the rules for the use of its operations, in use throughout the world today evolved over the course of the first millennium AD in India and were transmitted to the Western world via Islamic mathematics through the work of
Muḥammad ibn Mūsā al-Khwārizmī . [8]
[9] Islamic mathematics, in turn, developed and expanded the mathematics known to these civilizations. [10] Contemporaneous with but independent of these traditions were the mathematics developed by the Maya civilization of
Mexico and Central America , where the concept of zero was given a standard symbol in Maya numerals .
Many Greek and Arabic texts on mathematics were translated into Latin from the 12th century onward, leading to further development of mathematics in Medieval Europe . From ancient times through the Middle Ages , periods of mathematical discovery were often followed by centuries of stagnation. Beginning in
Renaissance Italy in the 15th century, new mathematical developments, interacting with new scientific discoveries, were made at an
increasing pace that continues through the present day. This includes the groundbreaking work of both Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz in the development of infinitesimal
calculus during the course of the 17th century. At the end of the 19th century the International Congress of Mathematicians was founded and continues to spearhead advances in the field. [citation needed]
Prehistoric
The origins of mathematical thought lie in the concepts of number,
magnitude , and form .[11] Modern studies of animal cognition have shown that these concepts are not unique to humans. Such concepts would have been part of everyday life in hunter-gatherer societies. The idea of the "number" concept evolving gradually over time is supported by the existence of languages which preserve the distinction between "one", "two", and "many", but not of numbers larger than two.
