Good afternoon. The news that has been published indicates that Mr. Mansfield asks for help to understand numbers 25 and 29. Yesterday I sent him an email about it from Spain. How can I know if he has received it? Thanks a lot. Best regards. Luis Castaño. Degree en Philology (UCA 1992). Researcher in Historical Metrology..
So lucky to have Dr. Mansfield for my first year algebra class... a fantastic and inspiring teacher who always managed to capture complex concepts in simplistic ways. Congratulations on your research, it's truly fascinating!
Excellent work by Dr Daniel Mansfield. Trigonometry without degrees just proportions of the sides. Making the case for teaching rational trigonometry in schools.
I once read a book called - "Amazing Traces of a Babylonian Origin in Greek Mathematics". This book made me ralize: 1) The root of all our invention, discovery and innovation lie in the real world. 2) Every civilization build upon the achievements of the civilizations that came before them. No one lives in a vacuum.
Came from another video on the topic that was also short and sweet, but it didn’t explain anything. It just said the tablets had pythagorean triples and then drew some triangles on the screen while someone talked about how triangles are fancy or something (actually it used the same graphics from this video). So thank you for actually explaining and showing what the tablets actually ARE and say.
Well done Dr Daniel Mansfield... I would suggest investigating the angles and ratios within and without the Great Pyramid at Giza in Egypt. Submit your findings and you will truly have discovered the oldest example of applied geometry, applied not only to the relationship between size and shape of the Earth, Moon and Sun in relation to the motion of these bodies with unarguably precise accuracy, but so so much more ;)
I have no background in any of this but I've never been so fascinated. I'm a video gamer and a bodybuilder how did I even get here? So interesting. I would love to see a more elaborate breakdown of the translations it's such a video existed. If not then sounds like there's a nice opportunity for someone to create some content
Great video. A wonderful insight into the brilliant minds of ancient Mesopotamia or what is known today as Iraq. On a separate note I'd love to see all these invaluable relics collected from all over the world and restored to its legal birthplace at the Iraqi Museum. Thank you for sharing.
Nice coinsidence to discover a clay proving that non whites where first. The political correct narrative and deconstruction of west most get fullfilled. "bUilD bAcK bEtTeR"
Fascinating but also a bit distressing how much knowledge was lost because of war or religious fanaticism throughout the history and had to be discovered again.
In other words, Pythagoras took this old theory from the Babylonians and published it in the 5th century BC. We wrongly named it after him. Will the theory ever be rightly re-named as the Babylonian Triangle ???
Origination theories seem to be the primary occupation of colonialist enterprises trying to show that "western" culture invented everything. If you look at Vedic fire alters and some of their history, they also had this type of knowledge. Such things were just part of the known knowledge at that time and these cultures were constantly interacting with each other. The concept of "globalization" has generally been a reality. To now try and attribute it all to Babylonia because they wrote in clay tablets, while other cultures at the time wrote on things like papyrus that do not last as long - would be to create the same error as giving Pythagoras all the credit. We don't know where it exactly came from currently, but we know that ancient civilizations were far more advanced than white people generally want to give them credit for. However in some instances we do know that certain things, like astrology, were not present in the Greek culture at certain times based on their own accounts of their culture, and came from this area of the world into their own usages - so if anything, indeed we might say there is more probability that the Greeks borrowed things from elsewhere and then rebranded it.
@@frankvazquez5974 Absolutely. There are megalithic monuments dating to 3,300 BC in Carnac France which are located at the unique latitude on the Earth at which the solstice sun, both summer and winter, form a perfect Pythagorean triangle relative to the parallel of latitude, that is to the east-west, equinoxial axis of the site. The 3:4:5 ratio does seem very evident in this construction. Probably the work of an ancient Indian civilisation as they migrated from their original temperate North Pole home (sic) to colonising Northern India leaving a trail of their language & DNA in their wake.
In contrast - in 2017, what came from Baghdad is: 'Energy, like time, flows from past to future"... And the essence of the very same Gilgamesh's story is now coined a law of Physics. Wailing.
The Plimpton 322 tablet is proof that the Babylonians know of Pythagorean triples 1,000 years before Pythagoras was born. Si427 shows that they knew how to apply this relationship to real life problem. All you need is a sense of proportion.
@@DjangoUnhinged It is very hard to differentiate between sarcasm and seriousness nowadays! As you can see the world is full of haters unfortunately. It is good that it was a joke. Have a lovely day and stay safe bro. 🤗

Super proud of our mathematician Dr Mansfield for this fascinating research find!

Amazing feat for Dr Mansfield. And so proud to be the Alumnus of the same University.
This is such an incredbile find! Not one but two ancient tablets that verifies the existence of the other!
Great video and even better discovery Dr Mansfield! Looking forward to the next one!
Incredible find, fantastic video!
The surveyor watching from heaven, "I did that hahah"
Beside the incredible find, kudos to director of photography for this fantastic video.
Thanks!

The first documented evidence of land surveyors? Very proud to be part of the profession.
I'm also super proud of seeing my hometown and my teacher from unsw engineering in one video :)
Your hometown is Babylon?
Hometown is Mesopotamia, grew up in Istanbul
This is deeply interesting, I believe our best way forward is to truly understand our history and origins
A very interesting research, changing the Mathematic´s history. Congratulations!
Fascinating!
Here from Anton Petrov's channel, where he did a video about this tablet, and the paper done about it recently. Hello!
I once read a book called - "Amazing Traces of a Babylonian Origin in Greek Mathematics". This book made me ralize: 1) The root of all our invention, discovery and innovation lie in the real world. 2) Every civilization build upon the achievements of the civilizations that came before them.

Here you go ruclips.net/video/fSRMJcpKA3s/видео.html
You're just exercising the muscle between your ears, is all!
Mathematics is an ancient science; there is possibly a lot more to find.

that is very cool. It is very interesting and so are his sleeves.
Also, I saw what you did, standing on the corner . . .

who named this theorem after Pythagoras?
Nice coinsidence to discover a clay proving that non whites where first. The political correct narrative and deconstruction of west most get fullfilled. "bUilD bAcK bEtTeR"
I wonder who taught them about astronomy without the use of satellites and technology.
... and Tibees will make thousands of dollars on youtube out of it
고생하셧습니다. 베르누이수에 대해서 조사해 보십시오 ㅋ
Wicked.
Middle-east for thousands of years was center of civilization in the world. So sorry for its longlasting wars todays
Dr there's plenty of discoveries to be found, but you need to go to Iraq.
It is the traces of Iraq, which Turkey stole
😉👍
1st to comment & first to scream, that all was not as one would seem.
"What other discoveries are out there?" - Visit India and South Asia to find your answers.
Oh, not just there!
Fascinating but also a bit distressing how much knowledge was lost because of war or religious fanaticism throughout the history and had to be discovered again.

I do not think we can conclude from this to Pythagoras stealing it from Babylonians. It would be simply forgotten knowledge rediscovered.
Couldn't have said it better.

@@frankvazquez5974 More like Stolen.

Um, huh? What does wailing have to do with any of that? Why cry loudly and mourn any discovery like that?

It wasn't made by turks though. But they'll try to convince you otherwise lolz

who pays for this video
What do you mean, explain pls?
University of New South Wales is the channel name. So, presumably them.
This is a lie. Greeks discovered geometry. Greeks and Europeans are exceptional
Loooool, you got hurt? Hahahahaha, babylonians were far ahead of Greeks. Calm down and move on. Iraqis are rewriting the history again!
