Abstract: Abstract During the period when the ancient civilizations of China, India, and Arabia in the east were making new contributions in mathematics, Europe was in the midst of its long Dark Age, a term first used by the Italian poet and scholar Petrarch (1304–1374), often considered the father of the Renaissance.
