We have just published the website for Before Pythagoras: The Culture of Old Babylonian Mathematics, an exhibition that opens to the public next Friday, 12 November 2010. We hope you'll visit the website to view highlights from the exhibition, including some cuneiform tablets that are among the most important sources of evidence for understanding early Babylonian geometric and arithmetic achievements. We also hope you'll make plans to come see the exhibition in person, which ends on 17 December 2010.
