High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Akhmim wooden tablet, is an ancient Egyptian artifact that has been dated to 2000 BC, near to the beginning of the Egyptian Middle Kingdom. It is currently housed in Cairo's Museum of Egyptian Antiquities. Its text was reported by Georges Emile Jules Daressy in 1901 and analyzed and published by Daressy in 1906. The first half of the tablet details five divisions of a hekat, partitioned from its unity (64/64), by 3, 7, 10, 11 and 13. The answers were written in Eye of Horus quotients, and Egyptian fraction remainders, scaled to a 1/320th factor named ro. The second half of the document proved the correctness of the five division answers by multiplying the two-part quotient and remainder answer by its respective divisor (3, 7, 10, 11 and 13). In 2002, Hana Vymazalova, gained a fresh copy of the text from the Cairo Museum, and confirmed that all five two-part answers were correctly returned to the initial (64/64) unity value by the scribe. The proof that all five AWT divisions had been exact was suspected by Daressy, but was not proven in 1906.
