Origin of Science and the Crusade
But when we look at the history of the world Egyptian, Greeks, Roman, Persian, Mongolia, Saracen, British, Dutch, Portuguese, Chinese, Indian and both others had been the super power in different periods of the history. Yet when we talk some(prenominal)body about a scientific Inventions and discoveries or major leap In the scientific development most tent to point their fingers towards the atomic number 63 if It Is earlier 18th ascorbic acid and towards the USA if it is after 1 9th speed of light. This sort of behavior is deep down in our minds. But is this correct?If so, why the non-European nations were super power? For this I think we accept to take a Journey in the history of Science from the early Egyptians. In this short article I would kindred to take an excursion bout the origins of knowledge, where there the history had been littered with some manipulation and misconception. According to many in the world the science was begun by Greeks and was positive by the post renaissance Europe. As the comparable time solely the great cultures like Persian, Egyptian, Chinese and Indian had no clue regarding the science.But when we look at the history of these subtletys we can understand how developed they were in the history. Egyptians were one of the early races before Greeks who were developed in the Science. They were well versed In anatomy (for art), astronomy and astrology, which ere inseparably linked in ancient Egypt, biological science and veterinary medicine, chemistry, geography, geology, history, law, geometry, medicine, mineralogy, pedagogy(education), philosophy, physics, sociology and theology 1. Irrigation scheme of Nile, tall standing pyramids and the mummies are some example of scientific try of the Egyptians.Geometry was applied in the Egypt for tax purposes before the so called Euclid of Greece wrote the book of The Elements. Here comes another manipulation of tarradiddle again in the form of Euclid. Many text books refer Euclid was a white male in conclusion from Greece and ivied in Alexandria around three nose candy B. C. But no such person was brisk on this mother earth. The author of this book is a black woman from Alexandria who lived around fifth century C. E. 2 From these arguments we can assure that the Greek were not the starting one to begin the Science.Now lets go through the development of Science. If we consider the manipulated version of the science history, we get a wide blank span of time from the Greek civilization to the renaissance Europe. Where were the text and the sources of these scientific theorems and formulae? Were they 2 Origin of Science and the crusades I Mohamed Gammy Shifter_209110164 buried in the Mount Olympus? No. They were translated taken into custody by another civilization which have contri merelyed to the many of the scientific development and not credited to it.Yes it was taken into the custody by Islamic Civilization. They hold these texts of Greek until the cr usades 2. The westbound claims that the Muslim merely translated the works of Greek and preserved it. They never did develop the ideas in the text. This argument is absurd. The Muslims very much ruled from the shore Atlantic Ocean to the boarders of China. And they Just preserved these texts which cost a fortune with the papyrus technology. Many books from Baghdad Library were destroyed by the invasion of Mongols over Jeremiah on 13th century C. E.But the contributions of All Bin Sins (Vicua) whose The Book of Healing was text book for medicine in many gallant universities3, Legalize Bin al Haitian, Jabber bin Hays, AAA Affair, Muhammad bin Carrying al Razz, Bin al-Naifs were indispensable in the scientific history. All bin Shall Arabian al-Tabor was an Islamic scholar, physician and psychologist of Zoroastrian descent, who produced one of the first encyclopedias of medicine. Even the number system we used today was introduced systems Lets have brief a look on the other civili zations which contributed to the science.Like the crest on the peacocks head, like the gem in the cobras hood, so stands mathematics Oat the head of all the sciences. Vided literature of Indian Culture is replete with concepts of zero, the techniques of algebra and algorithm, square root and cube root. Arguably, the origins of conglutination lie in India 300 years before Leibniz and Newton. Algebraic theories was developed by Rapacity who lived in 5th century C. E. ND another mathematician Backbenchers was the first to was the first to conceive of differential calculus in 12th century. near of us are familiar with Roman numerals.Think you are sitting in a class doing Calculus using Roman numerals. You are going to write 1788 in Roman numerals it will be ANTICLIMACTIC. You even cant think of doing calculus by using this number system. From this we can conclude that calculus was not developed or used in early Europe. Ancient Indians development in chemistry was alike in a higher le vel and used in a variety of practical activities. In any early civilization, metallurgy has remained an activity central to all civilizations from the Bronze Age and the Iron Age, to all other civilizations that followed Indian achieved the higher level of metallurgy.By the side of Stub Minor in New Delhi, there is an iron newspaper column erected during Array Guppy period around 500 AD. This pillar is 7. 32 meters tall, and has a circumference of 40 CM in the bottom and 30 CM at the top. It has been standing in the open for operate 1500 years, withstanding the wind, heat and weather, but still has not rusted, except minor natural erosion. This kind of rust conclusion iron (steel) was discovered very few decades fore by mixing carbon with iron 4. 3 In addition, the Chinese Dynasty in the Far East was producing gunpowder, paper and establishing printing presses.Moreover, the Calendar system was introduced by Amman civilization that is very famous for predicting apocalypse of the earth. From the above arguments, one can conclude that science was not precisely originated from Greece and it originated universally. Then how did the story Science was originated in Greece came into play? Moreover, where was it originated? These questions can be answered in two simple words church building and Power. From the time hen the state and the church merge, Church initiated the program of distorting history to promote its power.This technology of falsehood was now applied to manage common perceptions5. During the crusades, church captured many text and tent to use them. But theological aspects would not allow them to use a Muslim knowledge. Therefore, they manipulated their people by saying that the knowledge Arab had was belonged to Greeks. Arabs Just preserved it. This story enabled the universities in Europe to use translated Arabic books without contradicting their theology. But on the Arabs side, it was a different story.They built Batty al Hickman (House of Wisdom ) in Baghdad they gathered knowledge from all over the world, including India, Persia and China. They certainly did not restrict themselves to Greek Arabs only had sources to Greeks. So all the knowledge which was acquired from Batty al Hickman in Baghdad became the Greeks, So did all the scientific inventions and discoveries. This theory is being promoted by many scholars of the present too. Here is an example from Lost in the introduction by Walker Percy . .As Whitehead pointed out, it is no coincidence that science sprang, not from Ionian metaphysics, not from theBrahmins-Buddhist-Taoist East, not from the Exceptionally astrological South, but from the heart of the Christian West, that although Galileo fell out with the Church, he would hardly have taken so much trouble studying Jupiter and dropping objects from towers if the reality and value and order of things had not first been conferred by belief in the Incarnation. 6. So anyone from any country has the right to say that t heir ancestors were also one of the pioneers of the science. It is time stand up against the West only theory. The Europeans not only colonized our countries but also our education system.They left our countries long ago. Now it is time to decolonize our education system. And the way we think. 4 References 1Dunn. Ancient Egyptian Science retrieved from http//www. Torturers. Net/ featureless/sciences . hypertext mark-up language 2 Raja, C. K. Euclid and Jesus.
