It is hard to give a balanced overview. I fear that ancient Egyptian, Sumerian, Indian and Chinese contributions are underrepresented.

[@Kashyap_Trivedi2]

I think same if you look at ancient Egypt, sumerian, ancient India and China you can easily found that all are very good in mathematics and science. Old Babylonian Period (circa 1900-1600 BCE): The evidence of Babylonian knowledge of the Pythagorean theorem comes primarily from clay tablets written in cuneiform script. These tablets contain mathematical problems and their solutions. The most famous tablet is Plimpton 322, which dates to around 1800 BCE. This tablet lists several sets of numbers that satisfy the Pythagorean relationship (a^2 + b^2 = c^2), indicating that the Babylonians were aware of these relationships and could generate Pythagorean triples. Plimpton 322: This clay tablet contains a table of numbers written in base 60 (sexagesimal) that are now understood to be Pythagorean triples. The tablet consists of 15 rows and 4 columns. The first three columns are thought to represent lengths of the sides of right triangles. The fourth column may be an index or another variable related to the entries. Scholars believe the Babylonians used these triples for practical purposes, such as construction and land measurement. Mathematical Techniques: Babylonian mathematics was heavily arithmetic-based. They used algebraic methods to solve geometric problems, and their approach was highly procedural, involving step-by-step instructions. They did not necessarily abstractly formulate mathematical theorems as Greeks later did, but their work clearly shows an understanding of the principles underlying the Pythagorean theorem. While the Babylonians did not leave theoretical proofs in the style of Greek mathematics, their practical knowledge and the mathematical records they left behind provide strong evidence that they understood the Pythagorean relationship well before Pythagoras. This ancient knowledge was likely passed down and influenced later Greek mathematicians. Another example India: Sulba Sutras (circa 800-500 BCE): The Sulba Sutras are a collection of ancient Indian texts that provide guidelines for constructing altars and other structures for Vedic rituals. These texts contain several mathematical principles, including those related to geometry. The most notable Sulba Sutras that reference principles similar to the Pythagorean theorem are the ones attributed to Baudhayana, Apastamba, and Katyayana. Baudhayana Sulba Sutra: The Baudhayana Sulba Sutra, believed to date back to around 800 BCE, explicitly states a version of the Pythagorean theorem. It describes that a rope stretched across the diagonal of a rectangle creates an area equal to the sum of the areas on the sides. A specific passage from the Baudhayana Sulba Sutra (1.12) states: "The diagonal of a rectangle produces by itself the same area as produced by the two sides. Apastamba Sulba Sutra: The Apastamba Sulba Sutra also contains references to geometric principles that include versions of the Pythagorean theorem. It includes methods for constructing right angles and describes properties of triangles and other geometric shapes. Practical Applications: Like the Babylonians, Indian mathematicians applied these geometric principles in practical ways, particularly in the construction of altars and other religious structures. Their work was primarily driven by ritualistic needs but demonstrated a deep understanding of mathematical concepts. Geometric and Algebraic Techniques: The Sulba Sutras use a combination of geometric and algebraic techniques to solve problems related to lengths, areas, and volumes. They provide procedures for creating right angles, doubling the square, and other geometric constructions that rely on the properties of right triangles. The knowledge and use of the Pythagorean theorem by ancient Indian mathematicians show that this geometric principle was independently discovered and applied in different cultures long before Pythagoras's time. The contributions from the Sulba Sutras highlight the sophisticated understanding of geometry in ancient India.

Part 2

[@MB200bus]

Pythagoras did not discover the Pythagorean theorem. It was already well known before his time, he was just the first one to prove it.

[@steviebudden3397]

Came here to say just that...almost. The indians had a rather nice proof prior to Pythagorus. But P. did come up with his own proof as well which has some nice features to it. P. did do a lot of extremely clever things, but wasn't the first to prove the theorem named after him.

[@Tommy_007]

If you haven't proved it, you haven't discovered it.

[@MagicMike-n6u]

​@@Tommy_007 no, that's stupid. If you use it then you have discovered it. The theorem was being used by the Ancient Egyptians long before the Greeks became civilised. Just like how the Indian Brahma Gupta used integers or when the Chinese used calculus 2000 years before Newton and Leibniz. Proving and discovering are not the same.

[@JoeHilborne]

WHERE is my goat Euler bro

[@Ryan-dk7mm]

You can't stick Benjamin Banneker among Gauss, Euler and Cauchy just because you need some "diversity." Same with two of the women: Germain was somewhat like Agnesi meaning that most of "her" work was small developments on or rewritings of the work of male authors. Weierstrass' mistress Sophie Kowalevski achieved more and did scholarly mathematics however, it's unclear how much was her own given her proximity to Weierstrass, the most famous and influential mathematician of his time, who supported her career due to her affair with him (behind her husband's back).

[@bazzybon]

Agree. Especially when he didn't even mention Euler at all.
