McPherson Dedicated to Professor William Beverly Professor of Mathematics Lafayette College Easton, Pennsylvania PREFACE This book is written to describe the discovery of an ancient and lost system of Egyptian mathematics. The only lost science ever discovered or reinvented. It is a renaissance of Third Dynasty Egyptian mathematics. INTRODUCTION This is a book demonstrating a new branch of mathematics or a very old, unknown branch of mathematics invented, I believe, by the great Imhotep, Third Dynasty of Ancient Egypt~ He lived approximately 500 years before the construction of the great pyramid and an estimated 600 years before the flood of Biblical Fame.

  Editor's note: Samizu had verbally mentioned this incident, On Sept. 26, 1954, the Toya Maru, a Japanese commercial ferry, sank with great loss of life.  She noted that she herself had taken  the Toya Maru  across the Tsugeru Strait only a few days earlier.,to attend   the Women's College of Fine Arts in Tokyo    Madoka Matsuki recounted in the family memories of his father Satoru Matsuki:  "My oldest sister went to an art school for women, and I was sending her books from home.
