Ancient babylonians developed the ROOTS of Algebra long before 820AS as someone incorrectly claimed. Earliest references I saw were around Archimedes time (2,500 years ago).

Archimedes figured out what to do with algebra and gave calculus its first big push. He also gave geometry a big push, and his work in three dimensions.. Quite possibly the smartest man who ever lived..

Watch a documentary on the Archimedes palimpsest - very enlightening. HE's WELL worth studying, unlike plagiarists who came later.
