Data Governance is about how to control data of value. A well-known turning point in history was the publication of [[wikipedia:Luca Pacioli|Luca Pacioli]]'s [[wikipedia:Summa_de_arithmetica|Summa de arithmetica]]. This encyclopedia of mathematics of its time, had a 26 page worth of text on what we call [[wikipedia:Double-entry bookkeeping|Double-entry bookkeeping]], which became a foundational literature for [[wikipedia:accounting|accounting]].

According to the books<ref>J. Gleeson-White, Double Entry: How the merchants of Venice shaped the modern world--and how their invention could make or break the planet, publisher Allen & Unwin, ISBN:978-1-74175-755-2, November 2011</ref><ref>J. Gleeson-White, SIX CAPITALS, or CAN ACCOUNTANTS SAVE THE PLANET?, publisher Allen & Unwin, ISBN-10:9780393246674, February 2015</ref> by [https://www.janegleesonwhite.com/six-capitals-2020 Jane-Gleeson White], Pacioli's double entry book keeping idea influenced the development of arts, sciences, and capitalism. [[wikipedia:Double-entry bookkeeping|Double-entry bookkeeping]] as a science of data, not only influenced the practice of the accounting profession, and it had a significant impact on the the formulation of [[wikipedia:Hamiltonian Mechanics|Hamiltonian Mechanics]], which is the foundational theory of both classical mechanics and quantum mechanics.
 
Sir [[wikipedia:William_Rowan_Hamilton|William Rowan Hamilton]] wrote a paper<ref>Hamilton, S.W.R. (1837) Theory of Conjugate Functions, or Algebraic Couples: with a Preliminary and Elementary Essay on Algebra as the Science of Pure Time, Transactions of the Royal Irish Academy, 17pp. 293–422.</ref>, which is cited many many scholars to show that he was influenced by the ideas of double entry book keeping. [https://www.ellerman.org David Ellerman] also had a very interesting paper that explains the powers of double entry bookkeeping<ref>David Ellerman, On Double-Entry Bookkeeping: The Mathematical Treatment, https://arxiv.org/pdf/1407.1898.pdf</ref>.
 
Given the intellectual roots of data governance have strong linkages to mathematics and accounting, it is only after the introduction of [[wikipedia:personal computer|personal computing devices]], and later the ubiquity of [[wikipedia:Internet|Internet]] access that made for accounting that made data governance an idea that is relevant to the general public.
