In historical numeral systems
Egyptian
1 lotus, 2 hobbles, 8 strokes
1 × 1,000 + 2 × 10 + 8 × 1 = 1,028. The signs are simply repeated and added; where they sit on the line is a matter of layout, not value.
Babylonian
1 corner wedge + 7 vertical wedges (sixties place), 8 vertical wedges (units place)
17 × 60 + 8 = 1028. Places are separated by a space on the tablet, with the higher place written first.
