Most all science previous to the western renasaince is blended with religion.

Here are some examples:

The Ayurveda:
Includes both what could be called medical science and of course is blended with religious tradition.

Vedic sacrificial altars are dimensioned based upon mathematical principals (geometry was obviously used).

The some of the Hindu concept of creation is very similar to the "big bang" theory.

The Hindu date of the Universe is fairly similar to the cosmic date.
