I am fascinated by the Library of Alexandria. The amount of knowledge we had at that point (most of it forever lost).
Hypatia was the only woman in charge of the Library and the last. The video below tells what she did, accomplished and how she died in 415.

have fun
It's not really worth being fascinated about. There were other, more impressive libraries, most of what was in the one at Alexandria was probably copied and sent to others, especially as it declined and decayed, and by the time of Hypatia the contents of the library were pretty much gone.

And here comes the name calling

Hypatia fuck off, the Bishop did nothing wrong you whore. Also pic unrelated because Hypatia was an old crone when she was killed.

Remarking upon idiocy is not "namecalling".

Most wasn't copied though. There were civilizations referenced in Saharan Africa we have no records of, we have no way of reaching. Buried under oceans of sand, and their relics carried across it this way and that. Impossible to find.

Pardon me, your post fascinates me.
Are there ways to "scan" the Saharan sand with some sort of modern tech that sees through the sand and shows objects of interest beneath?
I don't mean basicbeach metal detectors, but some kind of topographical scanner that ignores the highly granular substances like sand..

Yes, the technology exists, but it will never be implemented on the Sahara desert like that by those who have it, because they are complicit in the literal and figurative coverup of what lies underneath there.
I respect Christian philosophy and theology a great deal, but I just stomach the claim that such a good, classy and intelligent lady in Hypatia of Alexandria would spend an eternity in hell just because she was a Pagan, and the mob that lynched and raped her to death is in heaven because they were Christians. This is preposterous and the contrary of justice.
