Ancient
- ???? first scripts
- Sumerian traders around 5200 BC – 4500 BC.
- Dated from 2720 BC is the oldest pyramid of Hellinikon (Greece), so ancient Egyptian pyramid builders probably used to use some principles of project management.
- Slave-owners faced the problems of exploiting/motivating a dependent but sometimes recalcitrant workforce , first leadership techniques.
- The First Slave War (134 BC-132 BC) freeborn slave named Eunus, styling himself King Antiochus, who adopted a name familiar from the region of his birth—Syria—was reputed to be a magician, and led the slaves of the eastern section of Sicily.
- Second Slave Revolt 104 BC-100 BC led by slave named Salvius led slaves in the east of Sicily; while Athenion led the western slaves.
- The Revolt of Spartacus 73 BC-71 BC While Spartacus was a slave and gladiator, as were the other leaders, and while the revolt centered in Campania, in southern Italy, rather than Sicily, many of the slaves who joined the movement were like the slaves of the Sicilian revolts. Most of the southern Italian and Sicilian slaves worked in the latifundia as agricultural and pastoral slaves. Again, local government was inadequate to handle the revolt—it took three Roman armies to put an end to the Spartacan War.[1]
- The war with Hannibal had produced 75000 slaves, and many were imported from Asia after the war with Antiochus.
- The First Slave Auction at New Amsterdam in 1655.

- 1494 – Luca Pacioli – codification of double-entry book-keeping in Summa de arithmetica, geometrica, proportioni et proportionalita (Venice), a synthesis of the mathematical knowledge of his time.
- 1509 book Divina Proportione by Pacioli discusses the mathematics of the golden ratio and its application in architecture. Leonardo da Vinci drew the illustrations of the regular solids published in the book while he lived with and took mathematics lessons from Pacioli. Da Vinci's drawings are probably the first illustrations of skeletonic solids which allowed an easy distinction between front and back. The work also discusses the use of perspective by painters such as Piero della Francesca, Melozzo da Forlì and Marco Palmezzano.
