It is in the Sphinx's riddle that mathematical imagery is used in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the Sphinx asks what life form moves on fours in the morning, on twos in the afternoon and on threes in the evening of life. Theban King Oedipus gives the correct answer of a human being. For example, a baby crawls on fours, an adult stands on both feet, and a senior citizen takes a cane.
