Origins of Greek mathematics
The origins of Greek mathematics are not easily documentable. While no direct evidence is available, it is generally thought that the neighboring Babylonians and Egyptians had an influence on the younger Greek tradition. Between 800 BC and 600 BC Greek mathematics generally lagged behind Greek literature, and there is very little known about Greek mathematics from this period—nearly all of which was passed down through later authors, beginning in the mid-4th century BC.
Classical Period
Historians traditionally place the beginning of Greek mathematics proper to the age of Thales of Miletus (ca. 624 - 548 BC). Little is known about the life and work of Thales, so little indeed that his day of birth and death are estimated from the eclipse of 585 BCE, which probably occurred while he was in his prime. Despite this, it is generally agreed that Thales is the first of the

Origins of Greek Mathematics
Greek mathematics has origins that are presumed to go back to the early Thalassic Age, but are not easily documented. It is generally believed that Greek traders, scholars, and businessmen brought back to Greece the mathematics of the Babylonians and Egyptians . Between 800 BC and 600 BC Greek mathematics generally lagged behind Greek literature, and there is very little known about Greek mathematics from this period—nearly all of which was passed down through later authors, beginning in the mid-4th century BC. The use of generalized mathematical theories and proofs is usually regarded as the key difference between Greek mathematics and what came before. However, Babylonian mathematics was not entirely without generalizations and formalized mathematical knowledge; historian Jens Høyrup and other have pointed to the example of "Problem 20" in the Babylonian cuneiform text

Origins
Greek mathematics has origins that are presumed to go back to the 7th century BC , but are not easily documented. It is generally believed that it built on the computational methods of earlier Babylonian and Egyptian mathematics , and it may well have had Phoenician influences. Some of the most well-known figures in Greek mathematics are Pythagoras , a shadowy figure from the isle of Samos associated partly with number mysticism and numerology , but more commonly with his theorem , and Euclid , who is known for his Elements , a canon of geometry for centuries.

Ancient Greek Mathematics for Kids - what math did the Greeks invent? what math did the Greeks learn from other people? why is it important?
Ancient Greek Mathematics
Because the Greeks had only very clumsy ways of writing down numbers , they didn't like algebra. They found it very hard to write down equations or number problems. Instead, Greek mathematicians were more focused on geometry, and used geometric methods to solve problems that you might use algebra for.
Greek mathematicians were also very interested in proving that certain mathematical ideas were true. So they spent a lot of time using geometry to prove that things were always true, even though people like the Egyptians and Babylonians already knew that they were true most of the time anyway.
The Greeks in general were very interested in rationality , in things making sense and hanging together. They wanted to tie up the loose ends. They liked music , because music followed strict rules to produce beauty. So did architecture , and so did mathematics.
