Which article are you evaluating?
Moscow Mathematical Papyrus

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
I choose this article because I find ancient Egypt very fascinating. But I also think that it is important in our understanding about how our knowledge of math has developed over time. I was also interested in how and where this papyrus was found.

Most of this article talks about the content of the papyrus. While this is important, I do think that it is missing quite a bit on the history of the physical papyrus itself. I also think that it would be helpful to look at how this papyrus was translated and divided into 25 separate problems. Also was there any effort to translate it before 1930? I do think that this article does do a good job at describing and explaining what the problems on it were.
