Ernest McClain's Myth of Invariance is sort of the classic on this subject, but it can be quite boring, quite dense.

De Santanilla's Halmet's Mill is about how advanced paleolithic mathematics and astronomy was - bolstered by recent understandings of Lascaux. Anything by Joscelyn Godwin will pertain to your interests probably. His books are worth their weight in gold.

McClain's mostly going off numerology from the Rg Veda, Plato (Republic mainly), and the book of revelation. His point is that they are all about mathematics as it pertains to 1) astronomy and 2) music, both of which are mathematically imperfect systems. It is their mathematical imperfections that supplied motive force to mythological understandings of the world.

So the book is both mathematical and in large part musicological (like Godwin's stuff). He takes stuff like the circle of fifths as the perfect invariant system, symbolized by the dragon that is slain by the minor differentiations with the system, symbolized by the killer of the dragon (Cadmus, Marduk, Indra). Stuff like that. It's a bit far out for most mainstream academia.
