You're a liar. The statement is:
Taking 'real mathematics' to be mathematics that
recognized the importance of proof, that carefully
distinguishes logical argument from calculation, etc.,
there is no clear evidence of real mathematics before
the Greeks.
Well, you say it again. Proofs and theoretical insights
are the two sides of the same medal. You are still
believing that real mathematics arose with the Greeks,
no real mathematics in Egypt, no real mathematics
in Mesopotamia.
Bull***.
There are two classes of pyramidiots:
A) those who believe a Great Pyramid can be built
without a solid mathematical knowledge including
the Theorem of Imhotep (falsely named after
Pythagoras)
B) those who believe the Great Pyramid was built
by aliens or Atlantians
You belong to the first class which is responsible
for the second class (Erich von Daeniken, Graham
Hankook, etc. pp.). Every normal human being is
impressed by the Great Pyramid and feeels that
this geometrical monument par excellence must
incorporate mathematical knowldge, real mathematics
in your terminology - but then you say no, the ancient
Egyptians did not practize real mathematics, and so
the question is: where does the real mathematics in
this monument come from? and the only possible
answer is then: from Atlantis or outer space.
