My only quibbles are with 5A, which led me astray for a while. (A) My understanding is that ABACI were invented independently in several civilizations, but definitely Sumerian/Babylonian well before Greece; and (B) I don't think they were handheld, especially in early times (some of the older ones were "sandboard" structures and had to be on a stable surface).
Well, regardless of where they were first invented, they were used in ancient Greece, so I guess that part is okay. "Greek" works a lot better with the verse's meter than "Sumerian". I assume you're right, though, about the handheld bit -- sorry! I do like the image of an ancient Greek nerd walking around with a handheld abacus. I would have been one myself!
