History of Geometry in Babylonian and Egyptian

Geometry (Greek γεωμετρία; geo = earth, metria = measure), Its beginnings can be traced in ancient Egypt or early or before 1700 B.C. Due to necessity, every time the Nile River inundated and deposited fertile soil along the bank, the early Egyptian had to solve the problem of size and boundaries of land along the Nile River. Changes happened in the contour of the land had caused confusion among landowners. So a system of making boundaries, measuring lengths and areas had to be discovered. From this circumstance the name “Geometry” has evolved. The word “Geometry” originated from the word “Geo” means “earth” in Greek and “metros” means “to measure”.
It was arose as the field of knowledge dealing with spatial relationships. It began with a practical need to measure shapes. It is the science of shape and size of things.
Geometry was one of the two fields of pre-modern mathematics, the other being the study of numbers.

ANCIENT GEOMETRY (3000BCE – 500BCE)
*Many ancient civilizations like the Babylonians, Egyptians, Hindus and Chinese, laid the foundation for geometry as practiced today.Before recorded history, geometry existed as simply, * the science of measuring land and storage containers. The first concepts of geometry “had their origin in simple observations stemming from human ability to recognize physical form and to compare shapes and sizes. *These types of situations brought into being the geometric concepts of vertical, parallel and perpendicular. *

Let us sum up the history of geometry from its beginnings in peg-and-cord constructions for circles and squares.
The circle and square were sacred figures and were studied by the priests for the same reason they studied the stars, namely, to know their gods better. The observation that the square on the diagonal of a rectangle was the sum of the squares on the sides found an immediate ritual application. Its elaboration in the sacrificial ritual gave it a dominant position in ancient
