Last Voices from World War I Episode 1: Call to Arms It's a symphony of lost lives and burnt spirits sung by the young men of 1900s. Feel the taste of an ode to guns and roses.

The first usage of the Arabic numerals in Europe!
In this manuscript from 1202 you can see the very first time the Arabic numerals were used in Europe, in a work by Fibonacci. A century later, they had almost completely replaced the roman ones, and 800 years later we still use them every day! #culture #numbers #history #classics #knowledge (edited)
