RMJR317E–The Amarna tablets are an archive, written on clay tablets, primarily consisting of diplomatic correspondence between the Egyptian administration and its representatives in Canaan and Amurru during the New Kingdom.

An ideogram or ideograph is a graphic symbol that represents an idea or concept, independent of any particular language, and specific words or phrases.

Pictography is a form of writing which uses representational, pictorial drawings, similarly t

RMJR317R–Signs for hunger, thirst, supplication, and so forth, among both Innuit Indian and ancient Egypt - as indeed many other peoples, both in the old world and the new, whose writing has not reached a purely phonetic state - have that correspondence to be expected when things common to all men are graphically represented.

RM2BE0GTX–Georg Ferdinand Ludwig Philipp Cantor (1845-1918) was a German mathematician, best known as the inventor of set theory, which has become a fundamental theory in mathematics. Cantor established the importance of one-to-one correspondence between sets, defined infinite and well-ordered sets, and proved that the real numbers are 'more numerous' than the natural numbers. In fact, Cantor's theorem implies the existence of an 'infinity of infinities'. He defined the cardinal and ordinal numbers and their arithmetic. Cantor's work is of great philosophical interest and vital to 20th century mathemati
