The Knights of the Templars introduced or worked with a number of groundbreaking concepts in the history of mathematics. A few of which are the following:
1) The Order, an important property in number and set theory
2) The Cross Patte'e, forerunner of the vector cross product
3) The Dome of the Rock, an early investigation of the hemisphere
4) Fratres Conjugati, which led to the development of conjugate variables
5) The Seige of Acre, first use of Acre of a measurement of land
Not to mention their significant advances in the science of usury, including exponential expansions on non-abstract issues such as debt.
