1. ROMAN NUMERAL SYMBOL BASICS
7 SYMBOLS ARE I, V, X, L, C, D AND M
PUBLIC DOGMA- On Roman Numerals:
1. They have no zeros.
2. They cannot be added.
3. They cannot be subtracted.
4. They are a dead numeral system.
5. They are useless in today’s world.
MY 5 YEARS OF RESEARCH SHOWS THESE FACTS
A. Some symbols have invisible zerros.
B. They are additive to 999 as a lower symbol follows a larger symbol.
C. Their value is a sequential based system.
D. Their symbols used in todays media have many errors.
E. All numeral systems have 2 components; the visible value symbols and the words or
language that states the value the symbols represent.
F. When the value reaches 1,000 (M) the lower symbols before the M is the symbol value in
thousands.
G. Roman republic and empire numeroligists could calculate values in the millions using
their system. Some data on their values follows.
