Multiplication, as a mathematical operation, dates back to ancient civilizations, with evidence of its use found in the Babylonian and Egyptian cultures around 2000 BC. The earliest recorded multiplication tables are from the Babylonians, who developed a base-60 number system. Over time, various cultures, including the Greeks and Romans, contributed to the methods and understanding of multiplication, leading to its formalization in mathematics as we know it today.
