After bringing severe flooding to #Libya, the remnants of #StormDaniel have moved into northern #Egypt today, kicking up Saharan dust as it spins.

The system will continue to weaken, but #Alexandria could see moderate to heavy rain in the next 24 hours.

Aaaw, so many questions. #Alexandria #Sydney #Australia #Springhassprung #birdnestsofmastodon

🪷 On 27 Aug the ancient #Egyptians celebrated the going forth of #Bast, goddess of cats. Did #Antinous and #Hadrian see the big #Bastet cat temple when they arrived in #Alexandria in August 130 AD? How could they miss it? Now it has been rediscovered: https://antinousstars.blogspot.com/2023/08/happy-world-cat-day-is-your-home-cat.html 🪷

Ancient history is crazy. We have so little to go on that entire superstructures of argument will be constructed on a tiny base of primary evidence. There is a whole debate among historians over whether Julius Caesar is responsible for the destruction of the Library of Alexandria, and it all seems to hinge on the interpretation of the single word "apothekas" in Cassius Dio's Roman History.

The Library of Alexandria was established under the Ptolemaic Dynasty of Egypt (323-30 BCE) and flourished under the patronage of the early kings to become the most famous library of the ancient world, attracting scholars from around the Mediterranean, and making Alexandria the preeminent intellectual center of its time until its decline after 145 BCE. #History #PtolemyI #Alexandria #HistoryFacts https://www.worldhistory.org/Library_of_Alexandria/
