Ancient Egyptian Sais independently produced advanced mathematical knowledge
Evidence
Western falsiļ¬cation of history is also evident in the attribution of ancient Africansā mathematical knowledge to Thales and Euclid. In fact, ancient Africans in Egyptian Sais were able to calculate the height of a pyramid as well as the distance of a ship in the ocean from a given point on land. ā Frans Dokman, Beyond Bantu Philosophy_ā¦, 945
Categorization
- QUESTION: Worth chasing: how does the Sais pyramid-height and ship-distance calculation compare chronologically and methodologically to Thalesā and Euclidās recorded work?
- CANDY: A compact, surprising claim ā Africans at Sais computed pyramid height and offshore ship distance ā that lands easily in conversation.
