  • In common with the other Mesoamerican civilizations, the Maya used a base 20 (vigesimal) and base 5 numbering system (see Maya numerals). Also, the preclassic Maya and their neighbors independently developed the concept of zero by 36 BC. Inscriptions show them on occasion working with sums up to the hundreds of millions and dates so large it would take several lines just to represent it. They produced extremely accurate astronomical observations; their charts of the movements of the moon and planets are equal or superior to those of any other civilization working from naked eye observation.[citation needed]

Printing press - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - 0 views

  • In contrast, the impact of Gutenberg's printing press in Europe was comparable to the development of writing, the invention of the alphabet or the Internet, as far as its effects on society. Just as writing did not replace speaking, printing did not achieve a position of total dominance. Handwritten manuscripts continued to be produced, and the different graphic modes of communication continued to influence each other

Khopu - Inca Writing? - 0 views

  •  
    In 1979 William Burns Glynn postulated that the Inca, long thought to be lacking a written language, actually had an alphabet of twelve letters and ten numbers. In his 1990 book Legado de Los Amautas
  •  
    there is a growing consensus that the Inca had to have had a system of written language in order to form and maintain an empire that stretched across thousands of miles of rugged terrain.
  •  
    Without something akin to the Rosetta Stone any theory about Inca writing is likely to remain nothing more than theory and speculation.

  • He is widely considered to be one of the greatest painters of all time and perhaps the most diversely talented person ever to have lived.[2] Helen Gardner says "The scope and depth of his interests were without precedent...His mind and personality seem to us superhuman, the man himself mysterious and remote".[1]
    • Jaylen Gibson
       
      He was consider as a great painters of all time during his period and inventor. People started to notice his talent for painting and inveting also his smarts for math and science.

    In 1466, at the age of fourteen, Leonardo was apprenticed to one of the most successful artists of his day, Andrea di Cione, known as Verrocchio. Verrocchio's workshop was at the centre of the intellectual currents of Florence, assuring the young Leonardo of an education in the humanities. Other famous painters apprenticed or associated with the workshop include Ghirlandaio, Perugino, Botticelli, and Lorenzo di Credi.[10][13] Leonardo would have been exposed to a vast range of technical skills and had the opportunity to learn drafting, chemistry, metallurgy, metal working, plaster casting, leather working, mechanics and carpentry as well as the artistic skills of drawing, painting, sculpting and modelling.[14][15][16]
