[Middle English, from Latin, from Greek abax, abak- , counting board, perhaps from Hebrew 'ābāq , dust.] WORD HISTORY The adjective dusty, with its connotations of disuse and age, might seem an appropriate word to describe the abacus, since this counting device was used for solving arithmetical problems in the days before calculators and computers. Originally the abacus was, in fact, dusty. The source of our word abacus, the Greek word abax, probably comes from Hebrew 'ābāq, "dust," although the details of transmission are obscure. In postbiblical usage 'ābāq meant "sand used as a writing surface." The Greek word

Extractions: Home World News Latest Articles Escape Hatch ... Endless Buzz The following article will throw some light on abacus history in a bid to reveal some lesser known facts about this ancient counting device. Continue reading for more information on various facts about abacus. Even though most of us know that abacus is a counting device with the ability to perform simple mathematic calculations, such as addition and subtraction, not many of us can boast about knowing its history. In fact, abacus history is one of the most contentious issues of the world, and even the historians are left divided over it. There seems to be no consensus whatsoever about who invented the abacus or when was it invented among the historians themselves, and that makes it all the more difficult for a common man to understand the same. Before we move on to further details about the history of abacus, you need to understand some basic facts about this device. As we mentioned earlier, there is a great deal of confusion as far as the meaning and use of abacus is concerned. The foremost thing to understand is that even though the abacus and counting board (which is also referred to as abacus by some sources), both were used as aids for counting in the ancient times, they are not one and the same. In case of counting boards, beads or stones were moved between carved or painted lines to perform calculations. In case of abacus, on the other hand, beads or stones were slided along the metallic or wooden rods in order to perform these calculations.
