'''Meitei numerals''' also known as '''Meetei numerals''' or '''Manipuri numerals''' or '''Kanglei numerals''', are a system of writing numbers using the letters of the [[Meitei script]]. In modern [[Manipur]], they are still used for [[cardinal number]]s. It is a positional notation system. This system has ten basic symbols, which are [[:mni:꯰|꯰]], [[:mni:꯱|꯱]], [[:mni:꯲|꯲]], [[:mni:꯳|꯳]], [[:mni:꯴|꯴]], [[:mni:꯵|꯵]], [[:mni:꯶|꯶]], [[:mni:꯷|꯷]], [[:mni:꯸|꯸]] and [[:mni:꯹|꯹]].

==History==
The [[Wakoklon Heelel Thilel Salai Amailon Pukok Puya]], an ancient work, mentions the philosophy of the development of the numerals. It was written in the 14th-15th century BC in [[Ancient Manipur]].<ref>https://sites.google.com/site/knowmanipur/home/the-birth-of-zero-0</ref>

==Philosophy==
The original figures of the Meitei numerals were coined from the [[embryo|embryonic]] developments of a human [[foetus]] during the period of [[gestation]], within a mother's [[womb]] and its [[delivery]] in the tenth month, leaving the [[uterus]] of the mother vacant, forming [[zero]] (phoon/phool).<ref>https://sites.google.com/site/knowmanipur/home/the-birth-of-zero-0</ref>
According to the '''Eeyek Chakpalon''', an ancient [[Puya (Meitei texts)|Puya]], the Meitei numerals are described as the numeral figures or shapes doined from the embryonic development of human foetus ("langon ki eeyek" in [[Ancient Meitei language|archaic Meitei]]).<ref>https://sites.google.com/site/knowmanipur/home/the-birth-of-zero-0</ref>

According to the [[Wakoklon Heelel Thilel Salai Amailon Pukok Puya]], [[Atingkok|Eepung Loinapa]], the Universal Godfather, takes the astral forms of the Thawanmichak Apakpa (North Pole Star) and Chayol Talep (Great Bear) taken together at the time of creation of the Tengpanpa (Cosmos). The male [[spermatozoon]] takes the physical form of the aforesaid astral one at the time of being an entrant within a mother's uterus (naopipham) and approaching towards a female egg (eelik), physical form of being 1, the figure 1 representing the astral form of the Chayol Talep (Great Bear) and Thawanmichak Apakpa (North Pole Star) and further representing the female egg.<ref>https://sites.google.com/site/knowmanipur/home/the-birth-of-zero-0</ref>
