But the Rosetta stone had no 'computing' dimension as fas as I can see.

These tally sticks do. Some are quite a bit older, too.

Other old-book contenders are Fibonacci's Liber Abaci (1202) or the latest of Al-Khwarizmi (9th C). There is even older Indian and Chinese stuff.

But on my shelves, alas, nothing older than 1965.
