Both the Ancient Sumerians and the Babylonians laid the foundation for our modern understanding of time, employing a sexagesimal system with 60 as its basis. But why 60? Without advanced mathematics, the Sumerians looked to the human hand as the primary tool for counting and visualizing quantities. They realized that the human hand could be divided into three distinct sections: the thumb, the palm and the fingers. By dividing the fingers into three sections, they effectively created a counting system that could represent numbers up to 12. Combining the notion of a dozen (12) with the five fingers on the other hand, they arrived at 60 as the total countable units.

Before the invention of writing or calculators, that was an actually pretty clever trick that gave you withe ability to count greater amounts on your hands
