Baris 159:
In the 12th century, European scholars traveled to Spain and Sicily [[Latin translations of the 12th century|seeking scientific Arabic texts]], including [[al-Khwarizmi]]'s ''[[The Compendious Book on Calculation by Completion and Balancing]]'', translated into Latin by [[Robert of Chester]], and the complete text of [[Euclid's Elements|Euclid's ''Elements'']], translated in various versions by [[Adelard of Bath]], [[Herman of Carinthia]], and [[Gerard of Cremona]].<ref>Marie-Thérèse d'Alverny, "Translations and Translators", pp. 421–62 in Robert L. Benson and Giles Constable, ''Renaissance and Renewal in the Twelfth Century'', (Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 1982).</ref><ref>Guy Beaujouan, "The Transformation of the Quadrivium", pp. 463–87 in Robert L.

These new sources sparked a renewal of mathematics. [[Fibonacci]], writing in the ''[[Liber Abaci]]'', in 1202 and updated in 1254, produced the first significant mathematics in Europe since the time of [[Eratosthenes]], a gap of more than a thousand years. The work introduced [[Hindu-Arabic numerals]] to Europe, and discussed many other mathematical problems.
The fourteenth century saw the development of new mathematical concepts to investigate a wide range of problems.<ref>Grant, Edward and John E. Murdoch (1987), eds., ''Mathematics and Its Applications to Science and Natural Philosophy in the Middle Ages,'' (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press) ISBN 0-521-32260-X.</ref> One important contribution was development of mathematics of local motion.
