Delaman Sel well said … i live very close to where the twin towers were and many of my friends lost the parents from the attack and none have them fed into this islamaphobia. Richard Bazil Razzle this is science… nothing political about it … im a liberal … i was stating that if an artifact is proving that there was a connection how is bbc pushing an agenda.

Delaman Sel get your facts right. Islam invaded pretty much everywhere which is why it spread. Medicine was already well known and developed throughout the Greek & Roman worlds 600 years plus before Islam was created (guess where the Hippocratic oath comes from? In the 1st century AD a Roman surgeon could deliver triplets even when there was a breach birth) – Pi was known to the Babylonians & Egyptian TWO Millennia before that. Most mathematical theorem was already proved and the circumference of the Earth established (in a Greek Egypt 900 years before Islam). Image Sweater

Archimedes was shouting Eureka! as he discovered displacement theory in Syracuse (Sicily) a century before that. In 732 AD Muslims were decimating southern France in yet another fanatical rampage, until they were soundly defeated at the Battle of Tours.

Keith “get my facts right” you’re amazing truley, I suggest you look up the Islamic golden era I also suggest you differentiate a religion from an empire a religion can’t invade a place it’s a belief system not an army I suggest you fact and vocabulary check, Once you have done that name me one Empire that didn’t expand by it’s military you dimwhit, lastly never claimed Muslim people were the sources of all knowledge but that their great contribution to science, medicine and academia isn’t recognised nearly enough, bitter little man.

They traded, and adopted cultures wherever they went (Christian and Islam). I find it quite exciting to learn about past peoples. Actually the vikings invaded Moorish territory and lost battles against them and then eventually against Byzantines that had Greek fire . It’s pretty obvious with the headline that this is more than just about trading, BBC is trying to say it as if they had religious affiliation, which makes 0 sense.
