  We explore the operad of finite posets and its algebras. We use order polytopes to investigate the combinatorial properties of zeta values. By generalizing a family of zeta value identities, we demonstrate the applicability of this approach. In addition, we offer new proofs of some of Ramanujan's results on the properties of Eulerian numbers, interpreting his work as dealing with series inheriting the algebraic structure of disjoint unions of points. Finally, we establish a connection between our findings and the linear independence of zeta values.
