Mathematics, at its heart, is African. Unfortunately, much of ancient African traditions and customs have been lost due to colonization and slavery, including their knowledge and practice of mathematics. However, artifacts uncovered by archeologists confirm the understanding of math principles by African artisans. African art holds the secret behind the history of mathematics in Africa. With a focus on Sona sand drawings, this presentation will explore the beauty of mathematics that can be pulled from the ancient customs of the Tchokwe people of Angola. By exploring the work of Paulus Gerdes, a mathematician known for his work with the Tchokwe people, a discussion of mirror curves and symmetry arises from the analysis of the Sona sand drawings. He takes the patterns created by these curves to make what he coins as Lunda-designs. In this presentation, you will learn how to create your own Lunda-design and learn why they are mathematically beautiful.
