I always thought they just drew **** and ass with a piece of chalk in a cave somewhere and jerked it to that, but they're a lot more advanced than we originally thought.

Hype Job's Santa Chan avy gave me this idea.
Too bad Shaolin Sword is banned. He was the reason I started using the Jackie Chan avy a few months ago. It really annoyed him, he even sent a "Kick Me" gift because of that lol. Then about 3 or 4 other posters started using it to troll him even more lmao.

"The tablet, known as Plimpton 332, was discovered in the early 1900s in Southern Iraq by the American archaeologist and diplomat Edgar Banks, who was the inspiration for Indiana Jones.
The true meaning of the tablet has eluded experts until now but new research by the University of New South Wales, Australia, has shown it is the world’s oldest and most accurate trigonometric table, which was probably used by ancient architects to construct temples, palaces and canals.
However unlike today’s trigonometry, Babylonian mathematics used a base 60, or ***agesimal system, rather than the 10 which is used today. Because 60 is far easier to divide by three, experts studying the tablet, found that the calculations are far more accurate."

The Egyptians go back to like 3000 BC. Though the pyramids aren't that old.

Sumeria is much older than ancient Egypt.
So the "Greeks invented everything" crowd and the Nubians can both suck a d1ck as far as this thread is concerned.

3000 bc would put them at 5017 years old. Additionally, archaeologist and historians are fumbling with the age of ancient Egypt. Their count starts from dynastic Egypt. Remember theory that the Sphinx pre-dates dynastic Egypt.
Here is a crazy theory:
