Abstract

This paper examines the pro­blem of ori­gin of number in epistemological and axiological as­pects with the regard of phileogenesis. The core idea behind the approach is that the number pre­ceded the language and that the number nota­tions are anterior to writing systems. It is pro­bable that different theories of origin of num­ber are correlated with the number genesis.
