Thanks, but that's such a narrow definition of the concept.

Shukla Yajurveda[0] conservatively estimated to be written in 1200- 800 BCE period in 17.2.20 constructs powers of 10 upto a billion by names by adding shunya successively to 10.

This is the concept of zero. The title said "The Elusive Origin of Zero". Widening the definition to something else doesn't expand understanding but creates confusion.
