In countries that don't use Arabic numerals when writing, what do they call the 69 sex position?

This is a question for sex havers, which don't exist on /int/

69 in Indian numerals is ६९, which doesn't match up visually with the 69 position.

This is an Indian temple with a small figurine at its wall depicting the 69 sex position. It is dated to 5th century.

The Kama Sutra (dated to 2nd century) describes 69 as follows:

The way of doing this (i.e. of kissing the yoni) should be known from kissing the mouth. When a man and woman lie down in an inverted order, i.e. with the head of the one towards the feet of the other and carry on this congress, it is called the "congress of a crow".'

The word is "Kaksamyog" (Kak=Crow, Samyog=Congress).

Forgot the image.

Chapter IX of the Kama Sutra describes various types of Mouth Congress, and 69 is one of them.

the numerals we use originate in India. I'm just surprised the ones they're using now are so different, when even our alphabet is not so different from the phoenician letters (or even hieroglyphs) they're derived from

We use Arabic numerals, dummy
Not Indian ones

They're only called arabic numerals because they came to Europe via Arabs. They originate in India.

That's like saying cyrillic originates in egypt because of phoenicians spreading writing left and right

The "arabic numerals" that Europe uses today aren't the same as the numerals used in the Arab world, they're derived from them (except when the european version of the arabic numerals are used in arab countries). So they're not the same as true Arabic numerals, and the numeral system isn't originally Arabic, so in that sense I don't see how it makes sense to consider the numerals "Arabic" except that they reached europe by several intermediaries of which Arabs were only the last in the chain.
