The ancient civilization renowned for its contributions to mathematics, particularly in the form of numerals, is the Babylonian civilization. The Babylonians developed a sophisticated number system that was based on a base-60 (sexagesimal) system, which is still evident today in our 60-minute hour and 360-degree circle. They made remarkable advancements in geometry, algebra, and astronomy, including methods for solving quadratic equations and predicting celestial events. Their mathematical texts, such as the Plimpton 322 tablet, demonstrate their understanding of complex mathematical concepts, making the Babylonians a pivotal culture in the history of mathematics and science.
