Tallies, tallies on bones, questions about the precedence of
numerals or letters, the writing as a consequence of numerical
registers, discussions about the pre-history of mathematics, and much
are on the book "Origens da Matematica" - (Mathematics Origins) - in
Portuguese, ISBN 85-7292-037-4, Editora Champagnat, 1998.
I wrote this book for the general public, but persons with a keen
interest in mathematics may find it profitable.
