The Medew Neter of Mathematics
Is Mathematics the language of the universe? Dr. Theophile Obenga defines a language as nothing more than “Voice Sounds in combinations and patterns to express and communicate thoughts and feelings”. The common feeling the thought of Mathematics communicates amongst many people is fear. I like the phrase: fear is a disease; it will crawl up the soul of anyone who engages it. In a written form (script), as Dr. Obenga also puts it, it becomes “written symbols representimg voice sounds”. Mathematics thus becomes written symbols representing voice sounds that strike fear in people, linguistically speaking. Or is it? Why not ask a linguist what mathematics is, for, as for myself, I don’t buy into aunattested notions. It wont be hard to understand the one principle of a language; Grammar Rules.
Mathematics is a language. As a language it has grammar rules. These rules are Algebraic rule. So, to put it more concretely, actually, Algebra, is the language of mathematics, linguistically speaking. Let me say it again: Algebra is the language/script of mathematics. It has grammar rules without which mathematics cannot be expressed, symbolically and otherwise. Why is his important?
Language (voice sounds) is everywhere. It is the gift of nature to every living thing/being in the universe. Script, however, is the most difficult thing any kind can come up with; the one who invents a script also invents a civilization, and thus, anything, including mathematics. Algebra, like Medew Neter to writing, gave birth to mathematics. The history, and birth, of algebra is inextricable bound to the birth of Medew Neter. I cannot prove this, unless someone gives me all the letters (alphabets) of the sacred writing, Medew Neter. However, those letters are exactly what an infant child can relate to, naturally, before being plunged into accepting unnatural and meaningless symbols that instil fear for language/scritpt and mathematics.
Claim: Teach a child Medew Neter and algebra and watch a genius grow up
Algebra is the language of mathatics. It has grammar rules. You cannot violate grammar rules. The one who violates grammar rules is a bad person. Everything is mathematics can be proven by obeying grammar rule. For example:
2 x 3 means 2 + 2 + 2, and
3 x 2 means 3 + 3
In that way, the meaning ( of x) is conserved. Anything else is magical. Using the exponent (^)
2^3 means 2 x 2 x 2, and
3^2 means 3 x3
Thus consistency is preserved.
Nature and the universe, the cosmic order, and the laws of Ma’at, are consistent, and that consistency must be protected for the child to live with. Thus harmony is ensured. Anything else is magical, and confusing, with sole purpose to instill terror, domination and deceit “that leads to destruction and death at a pandemic level” (Dr Kamau Kambon)

Word.
I understand what you are saying. The only thing for me is….our ancestors did not use Algebra (as we know it) to teach mathematics. This was something that I realized when I had to write paper for my history of math class. Corinna Rossi pointed out in her book Mathematics in Ancient Egypt that while our ancestors knew what we call Algebra, Calculus and Differential Equations they did not approach those subjects the same way we do today. The rigorous approach to writing down math proofs comes outta the mind set of the Europeans, not the Kmtwy ppl. When you read the Greeks way of proving a problem its a long drawn out detailed paragraph of the problem. Instead of the symbolic way we are use to today.
Sigh…I cannot post pics. I was trying to show the difference from the ancient times to todays way of proving a theorem. But for some reason the sight wont let me post pics in the forum.
So what Im trying to say is that Yurugu came up wit the way we approach and solve problems today. Remeber Mariamba Ani told us that white ppl took spirituality outta science and its this aspect of solving problems that our ancestors used that we are missing. I do not understand how spirituality and science are used together to solve problems but I really wished I did understand. Because our ancestors used Calculus and Physics combined with spiritualiy to build the pyrimids and I guarantee once we get back to that mind set we will be able to reproduce what they did.
So, yes Algebra is the foundation of mathematics as we know it today. As my my Calculus prof said to us “many ppl fail calculus because they can’t do the algebra.” Calculus is easy as a MF. Its the Algebra behind Calculus thats hard. 😄 The thing that we need to start keeping in mind is that our ancestors did not do mathematics the way we are doing today.
For example Pi.
If you watch any of the math documentries on JewTube you would notice that they all claim that our ancestors did not have an accuracy of Pi. Which is completely BS!! Because one can prove that if you use the measurements that they had used you come up with 3.1415 exactly. Their method of obatining Pi is not the method that we use today. This is what we have to understand when we are looking into the mathematics of the Kmtwy ppl.
So I guess what Im trying to get at is that we cannot let the Eurocentric approach to mathematics be also our foundation of the math.
Thats just how I feel. But let me know how yall feel.
Ase.

The word “algebra” came from the Arabs. The Kmtyw used spherical trigonometry and geodisy when building the Great Pyramid in Giza. Ahmose’s Rhind Mathematical Papyrus appeared around 1900 B.C.E.and it’s also proof of the Kmtyw’s vast knowledge of geometry.
