This project explores the evolution of numerical concepts through the study of ancient material counting technologies and their impact on human cognition. By comparing ancient Near Eastern methods with those from Oceania, it aims to generate insights into the development of numerical understanding.
Material counting technologies (MaCoTech) play a critical role in developing human numerical concepts like numbers, numerical relations, and arithmetical operations.
Yet today, our understanding of how these concepts emerge is still very restricted, as the influential effects of prehistoric MaCoTech and Ancient Near Eastern (ANE) mathematics are difficult to assess and have been mostly neglected in modern-day research.The comparison of ANE MaCoTech to its extant counterparts of Oceania will allo…
