Another morning in Le Louvre
This Sunday morning visit to Le Louvre with my daughter was centred—her decision, not mine!—on sculptures, after an earlier exploration of the paintings. We still managed to walk through the Mesopotamian rooms, which is a part I really like, especially the tablets with the cuneiform script. Here is one describing the rules for handling fractions in their sexagesimal system and another one about computations on hexagons (from circa 2300).
