As snakes glide across the water, they don’t just create waves; their movements hide a fascinating mathematical mystery. The patterns of the stelae they leave behind follow the distribution of prime numbers. These numbers, which are divisible only by 1 and themselves, have baffled mathematicians for centuries. Number theorist Don Zagier has described them as “one of the unexplained mysteries of creation.” This connection is revealed when we represent prime numbers as circles with corresponding diameters, and draw periodic curves that intersect the axis at each prime number and its multiples. Primes emerge as the unique points where only two curves meet: that of the number one and that of the prime itself. This discovery offers a new perspective on prime numbers, linking nature with the hidden mathematical structure of the universe.
