Er, Pythagoras was Greek not Babylonian. Maybe, open a history book?
Of course he was. He built upon a framework that had already been created by the Babylonians. This is why I said it was invented in Babylonia first. The Babylonians discovered the ratio and Pythagoras built upon it.
What was the name of the Babylonian Pythagoras? Shame Pythagoras takes credit for the Pythagorean theorem
Anyway, our system of measuring time comes from the Babylonians. Much of the rest is solid conjecture, but only the Babylonians were using a base-60 system.
You made that up, too.
