Discovered and invented are regretably inadequate words to describe how areas of knowledge arise (arise is also probably inadequate) Yet I believe that areas of knowledge are the result of of a complex 'dialogue' (so to speak) between beings with the potential to understand, and 'substraights' or entities that possess the potential for that area of knowledge (potential to be artistic, mathematical, ethical) etc etc. However, until these two objects have an interaction or dialogue then the area of knowledge remains non-existant. But as soon as the dialogue begings the area of knowledge begins to arise. Admittedly the words invent and discovered could both be fitted into this arguement. But invention and discovery imply intent, however, most of the time these areas of knowledge arise by accident and without the beings noticing (at least to start with). Areas of knowledge appear to be sui generis upon the initiating of an accidental dialogue between the being and the substraight.
Math was not invented by a single person. Different people discovered or invented different areas of mathematics.
Hey guys..when i read this question for the first time i was very much sure of the answer ..Well to begin with I would say yes, some areas of knowledge are discovered and some are invented..the very first thought that i had of this question was..To invent means to originate as a product of one's own ingenuity, experimentation, or contrivance. Mathematics and its subjects are abstract ideas. Abstractions must be ingeniously created using mental processes includiing negation. analogizing, and word creation.To discover means to gain sight or knowledge of (something previously unseen or unknown). When an abstraction is created, its creator gains knowledge of something previously unknown.Therefore, mathematics is both invented and discovered.Shailesh Pareekno by curiosity man scientists have stated this
Nobody knows. Humans were living in the areas where mangos originated long before anyone invented history.
that is wut i want 2 know
The ancient philosophers asked all the right fundamental questions. They asked about the nature of reality. What is it to be real? What are the kinds of entities that are real? They invented ontology (metaphysics). They asked about the nature of our apprehension of reality. What is knowledge? How do we come to know what is real? What are the limits of knowledge? They invented epistemology (the theory of knowledge). They asked about value. What should we do? How should we make value judgments? They invented axiology (the study of value).
There were no areas claimed by Spain within the confines of the original 13 colonies.
The US and Spain claimed two very different areas at the same time! The Mississippi territory and Florida are the two big chunks claimed.
The Romans claimed to be conquering areas because they actually conquered them.

Euclid discovered a great many geometrical principles in his book Elements. He was also influential in other areas of mathematics, but he is widely considered the father of geometry.
