Post The City Of Alexandria

To the end of ancient egypt's glorious era as an empire , Alexandria and in arabic El Iskandariya was one of the ancient world's centers of learning . Ordered built by Alexander The Great . By his architect Dinocrates , However the city's foundation had already been laid out , Thousand of years before . It became the trade center of the mediterranean and quickly grew into a metropplis that served as capital of egypt for the Ptolemies ( Greek Mulattos ) . During the reign of Ptolemy 1 , It was already established as the Captital Of Egypt . The Ptolematic period was the greatest trade period during ancient times .

In Alexandria , Hellenistic Culture And Art was prominent . Like present day Alexandria . The city extended along the sea , In The Ptolematic period , The Estern Mediterranean was the center of the ancient world's political economical life . Alexandria contained an excellent harbor and was a land rich in agriculture though it was large . Populous , And wealthy , The most famous thing about Alexandria was the great library located there . This library and its learning complex was called by the latins ; Museum , '' It was one of the scholl that stored The Highest Knowldge For Humans , This Knowledge Was Possessed By The Modern Society Of The Caucasians . Here, The Sciences , Mathematics , Technology , Time Calculations , And Medicine Flourished Untampered Until The Greek , Having already forced their way into egypt , Eventually destroyed this great library . These Greek stole what knowledge and records they wanted to preserve for themselves , ( And Burned The Rest ) . Today . The many Theiries , Mathematical Formulas , Techological Advances , Etc ,

That the caucasian teaches you were developed by him came right from The Libraries At Alexandria , Egypt and Baghdad , Iraq . Reference to any Book or Encycelopedia on Greece , Egypt , or Ancient Civilization will ptove it because people . calling themselves Philosophers and Scholars left Europe and came to Egypt sneaking around puting down on paper , Everything that they saw and heard then . He devoted himself to stealing the knowldge . Alexandria's prosperity lasted for nine centures . , It lost its importance as a seaport after the Turkish Conquest Of Egypt .

WAs there actually a society referred to as "The Modern Society of The Caucausians"? I tried to google it and couldn't find anything so if you could explain a bit more, I'd appreciate it.

The overstanding of the above post is speaking on how the caucasians took the knowledge from the original egyptians who were nubians / black and claim it has theirs , Thats why I said modern society of caucausians .

I was a little confused about that particular phrase, as well. I wasn't sure what it was referring to. Thank you for clarifying it for us.

Ah, I see now. Thanks for clarifying. I think the word "modern" was a point of confusion in that the times we are referring to are actually ancient.

Also, for English readers and writers the capitalization of the first letter in a word denotes that it is a proper noun or an entity of some type. That, too, created some confusion but I just read your Pyramids post and realize that this is custom for you.
