Ground Zero For The Number Zero

________________________________________________________________________________________________


New carbon dating research commissioned
by the University of Oxford into
the ancient Indian Bakhshali manuscript
has revealed it to be hundreds of years older
than initially thought, making it
the world’s oldest recorded origin
of the zero symbol that we use today.

The Oxford researcher was asked
"How did you know you discovered
the origin of Zero?"
He replied
"There was nothing to it."
