Someone shared an article with me once that explained quite a few inventions were actually developed around the same time in different areas, sometimes across the globe. I have to get to work now so I can’t try to find it just yet, but if I remember I’ll go in search of it when I have a chance. It was an interesting read pointing to a collective consciousness/knowledge base.
Calculus methods was independently discovered by Leibnitz and Newton at around the same time, that's why we have different notations for the same thing.
