It's odd how you classify numerals as languages. Otherwise, great reference.

abacus-machine computingMachine -2700

babylonian-numerals numeralSystem -2000

roman-numerals numeralSystem -900

attic-numerals numeralSystem -600

greek-numerals numeralSystem -300

Thanks! I found that the development of numeral systems is in many ways similar to the development of programming languages, and the "story" is incomplete without including those in the db. It's a more recent development that I didn't expect.
