V.I.Vernadsky

The Natural sciences not simply describe and explain the nature; it is a part of our interaction with it.

Verner Gejzenberg

The Science is a process of noegenesis and answers to questions on the world and how it is arranged. Presently the science consists of separate branches. But in the ancient time people did not do any distinctions between a science and other forms of studying of a reality. Many problems as which we now consider scientific, in olden time received a religious or philosophical explanation though already in kept away, prehistoric, times have appeared rudiments of sciences of astronomy necessary for an everyday life and mathematics.

One of the most ancient civilisations in the history of mankind was Egyptian. This state has arisen more five thousand years ago. Rudiments of mathematics, astronomy, medicine which had applied character were familiar to ancient Egyptians and were used for systems irrigatsii, building and the government. In IV thousand BC have been invented solar and a water-clock. Mathematical papyruses contained collections of problems with decisions. Arithmetic and geometrical progressions were used in calculations. During an epoch of the Average kingdom (to XVT century BC) The equations with two unknown persons and stereometry elements (calculation of volumes) are known. Egyptians had a decimal system of calculation, they were able to calculate a surface of a triangle, a trapeze and even a circle, accepting number 71=3,14. On the basis of supervision over heavenly bodies the calendar according to which year shared for 12 months, or 365 days has been made. Assume that the first calendar was entered by the Egyptian priest Imhotep (2650 BC).
