I’m pretty sure people could do pretty advanced calculations before the 7th Century AD. You need to read those wikipedia links more carefully 🙂 Mesopotamian Civilization preceded Islam by several millennia, and was ended a good thousand years before it’s rise.

In Christendom Christians didn’t used to be allowed to do usury either, hence the traditional Jewish links to Banking.
