If anything mathematics quantified humans rather than the other way around. That being kinda the spirit of the game. Humans have been figuring out logically necessary consequences ever since they deserved the name human -- and thus doing maths. In this tradition, people like the Babylonians got useful, nontrivial, interesting mathematical results. But I think "real maths" means proving things up to a dogmatically persnickety, seemingly insane, standard of rationality. And that seems to have begun with the Pythagoreans in Greece, about 2600 years ago.
