Description
Math in Mesopotamia is a rich cross-curricular or thematic unit resource introducing students to early Babylonian mathematics through the 1942 archaeological discovery of the Plimpton 322 tablet.
PLEASE NOTE: This is introductory pricing. The price will go up soon!
The Plimpton 322 tablet showcases Pythagorean triplets, mathematics not believed used until later in history. The tablet's discovery reveals that the Babylonians were far more advanced in their mathematical thinking and application than previously understood.
