Radiocarbon dating revealed that it dates from as early as the third or fourth century—about five centuries older than previously thought. The manuscript was discovered buried in a field in 1881, in what is now a region of Pakistan. Zero is represented as a dot—seen here on the bottom line. This dot eventually evolved to have a hollow center and became the symbol we use today.
