What a beautiful building! I'm glad the Egyptian people still honor the Great Library of Alexandria!

One of the most egregious acts of early Christian leaders. Absolutely unforgivable.

The original Library got their books from the ships that would anchor in the harbor of Alexandria. the ships would be stripped of all their books and the books were taken to the library where scribes would rewrite the books, then the copy would be returned to the ships while the original was kept in the library. The burning of the library was more than a tragedy, it took out the knowledge of the world at the time, from ships around Asia to Europe.
