I would say way more to blame is the fall of the roman empire and the catholic church taking possession of and hiding away all books for a good 1000 years till the renaissance. The roman empire was in the early stages of industrialization, a level we did not reach again for over 1000 years. There was no real drop in technology after the library of alexandria fell, but there was a huge after rome fell.
@@aidansumner8364 flat earthers did exist, it was believed in most old religions, but the majority of the more educated people believed that earth was round.
how about you do, but copy them and put them in another library? i mean, imagine having to travel by horse, boat and foot from say Athens to Alexandria just to read the second part of a book?
Correct, and to add to that, also have as many copies of the book as possible and store it around the safest places around the world, just like the concept of the doomsday vault!!
That is exactly what the clever monks in Christian monastaries did. Continously copying and translating all the books in their respective monastaries and then passed on the copies to other monastaries, or sold them, so that the knowledge could be spread and be copied again by someone else in another location, should the monastary with the original book be burned down.
@@exoticcats6119 Because religious leaders in general do not want an educated populace. It's the only way they can keep selling their fantasies and then use that to control the masses, and to profit from them. It is thought the Vatican vault has lost knowledge kept in it, but I doubt much, if any, has anything to do with the Alexandrian library.
@@hristoitchov It could be very plausible since Vatican was built before Christianity was accepted in Roman empire. And Vatican was always though to be some sacred place. Also for example Obelisk in Vatican is directly from Egypt I don't want to go much deep in to crazy theories but it is a big thought that Pharaohs actually hid themselves in Europe and along that they may have moved Alexandrian library to Vatican. Vatican is also being guarded by Swiss Army and Swiss in general is thought to be run by those Pharaohs but I know its big conspiracy theory. But there is a lot of symbolism considering all of that that connects. For example Christian cross derives from Egyptian cross...
This video is false. There were no scrolls in the library. It was falling into disrepair, and they eventually sent all the scrolls throughout Europe. The fire may have happened, but it definitely did not burn the scrolls.
Every time i think of it I feel like myself not commiting to making something of it's kind in the here and now is doing a disservice to future generations.
The Great Library lost its funding before Caesar's time, and it was all downhill from there. Once a library loses government support, the collection tends to evaporate either thru decay or pilferage. By Caesar's time, there were very few researchers there, and they spent most of their time going down rabbit-holes of literary criticism. So I think that the loss of the Great Library is a mere legend, a romanticized tale like the Elephants' Graveyard. The only thing I regret losing is the historical works of the emperor Claudius. He gathered all the available records of the Etruscans and the Carthaginians, and wrote two histories of them. Even his harshest critics admit that Claudius was gifted as a historian (like, "He should have stuck with writing histories.") And he had adequate sources to work from. His works were the definitive histories of those times, superseding all others, and then ALL of the materials were later lost. We know from surviving Roman records that he built an annex to the Great Library and deposited his manuscripts there.
Only the elites were allowed to read those scrolls. If they had allowed everyone to read, appreciate and copy them, those scrolls might never have been lost.
True, even in modern libraries, shits get stolen. Guess what Greece needed was a strict membership system. If only we had that, we would have flying cars by now
Now here we are , present day earth. Slash your wrists style society and lifestyle. Take me back to the days of the medjay, Pharos , gods. Im a true believer now , this world is damn boring due to having to work just to eat,shit n piss. The elites ruined those scrolls because if they hadn't nobody would be working or paying taxes , its all a scheme. The lord says we all should have had our own land, our own things therefore theres no envy or jealousy , this world is a luck and right place right time style environment atm. History is the key, hopefully all these weird things happening around world will wipe out half or 3-4 of humanity.
Yes,the Mongols did the same in Balkh,Afghanistan. Same as Alexander the not-so-great who,when burning down Persepolis destroyed much of the Zoroastrian scriptures,the Zend Avesta.
It sucks how changing one thing in history can screw everything up so dramatically... it also sucks how selfish hoarding of information screws everyone.
We can still hoard a lot of information in one website now that we have the internet, in fact we can hoard even more knowledge since there is a LOT of space in the internet and it's safe so it can't be destroyed😊😊😊
Hugh Mann not necessarily,we probably have the internet alot earlier but limitations of the time etc meant otherwise, The issue is millennials are ignorant to alot of things that isn't on the internet !!
Half of the area that was known as alexandria in ancient times is now underwater, due to coastal errosion. So it hasn't been bult over exactly. And that is the fate of most of the historically important cities in antiquity, London, Rome atc, are all built over older, often mroe interesting parts of themselves.
Not a christian myself, but I do feel it gets unjustly judged too often today. Case in point: Eugenics and the Holocaust. This was a titanic massacre done in the name of science. Darwin's theory of evolution is one of the greatest creations to ever come from science. It kicked opened the doors to the ancient universe theory, united all the fields of geology, biology, and ecology, with all those strange bone/shell shaped rocks we were finding everywhere. It also revealed our place and our behaviors and nature as animals on this planet. But then some people twisted this idea and decided we needed to push evolution further by selectively eliminating traits, people, and whole races that they deemed unfit to breed. You also have to consider the many innovative, extraordinary, and powerful new ways that science has given us to kill each other: from gatling guns with explosive bullets, to sarin gas and nerve agents, to engineered weaponized superviruses, to single missiles that contain up to 12 thermonuclear warheads that will each target separate cities hundreds of miles apart. Religion, on the other hand, gave us the Golden Rule. It was the impetus for the quakers (religious evangelists) to lead escaped slaves to the north. It also is the leading source of charity worldwide. The obvious conclusion is that neither religion nor science themselves are "good or bad". It's how Man decides to use them that matters.
CheetahFoxx Religion consistently kidnaps science to wage wars. Pure science does not start wars but with religion to act as tinder, science can be used to spark it. Even thing such as the holocaust were at least partially religion motivated (a major factor) Science taken in without views created by the existence (or lack there of )of religion has not currently been used to initiate any wars,battles or conflicts.Religion on the other hand well... it didnt just leave a mark is burnt history

As a really HUGE geek and nerd, but also, as a human, I think the burning of the library is one of the most tragic events that EVER happened to the human race.
Ethan Amiran not one of,but THE most tragic event,9/11 was a minor setback,compared to a library that was equal to that of the internet at the time,and could literally put us at space travel by now,how sad.(Greeks and Romans were great once,sad to see that they no longer had the genius they once had)
Abdelrahman Sadawey yeah but I just hate how people say it's extremely tragic,when events that setback the future of humanity are the only truly tragic events to take place,deaths of millions,in truth,isn't as significant considering how many humans there are,the death of men nowadays,is lesser than the destruction of knowledge.
Nalanda University in modern day Bihar, India had millions of books and people from all over the world used to come there to study. We had tremendous knowledge on medicine, surgery, astrology, astronomy, plant and genetic engineering and much more. Indians were highly advanced and would have given so much knowledge to world but an Invader burnt the university in 13th century. It is recorded in history that it took several months for the university to burn down. Our records have also mentioned about Vimanas or Airplanes 1000s of year back
If the library wasn't destroyed We might have had that right now... Well it wouldn't be that useful But y'know we could still watch history porn... right??
It did. Roman novels were extremely sexual. The few surviving novels just as transformations "the golden ass" where a dude transforms into a donkey and fucks a noble women with a donkey dick... Roman novels were kinky that way.
Wait,IS HISTORY GONNA REPEAT ITSELF? Seriously,the internet is FULL of porn,but imagine if an emp bomb fryed all of our tech,history would repeat itself,this is no coincidence,what the library of Alexandria was,is what the internet is now.
Being held by the elites to dazzle us with the invention of modern tech that's actually ancient tech. The fire was probably planned and certain scrolls and info removed. The ships was probably a distraction.
in college i wrote a 10 page paper on why the "burning" (there were many separate fires over its life) of the library had essentially no impact on the course of scientific discovery or the proliferation of knowledge. basically the library was heavily defunded and the position of running the library had gone from being reserved for skilled librarians to being given away as a reward to people who did political favors causing it to be largely run in to the ground before it was destroyed. It is true though there were other great libraries in other empires and very little was lost in that incident. I suggested that the myth was so pervasive in modern society because we like to believe that we have progressed and view ourselves as more civilized so we fantasize that religious barbarians took the knowledge from us but ita funny to think that the past is in many ways very similar to the present. the library was destroyed by political corruption and bureaucracy.
I wouldn't say a it set humanity back a millenium, but it destroyed many records which otherwise would have given us much, much more knowledge of their respective time and how live was there. Also, if it survived, it would probably be the biggest library of all times, which would have made Alexandria more popular among the people and thus elevated greece's worth as a whole.
Considering what he seems to have done and TH-cam's "Rules" if you can name litteral shit that, it's no wonder they did that. If he earned it, i don't know. No interesst to look further for somebody i didn't even know existed 2 min. ago.

I guess I shouldn’t expect any more from someone with a profile pic with a hooded skeleton figure. His heart is obviously dead, cold, and rotten inside.
i wonder if Library of Alexandria didn't get burned down what would happen will we be still here or are we gonna change what if there was a book in that library that could've gave us the power of immortality but this is all speculation but i still wonder to this day what would happen if it didn't get burned down
Mother Russia Not a lot would have changed. The burning was a terrible tragedy, but the halting of scientific progress from 450 AD to 1450 AD in Europe was primarily due to the dominance of the catholic church and the Pope in Europe. There was no "path to immortality" in the library. The 1000 year loss was due to the dominance of religion that actively prevented further scientific progress. Until it was overcome during the Renaissance. We would have known many more ancient Greek plays and would have a much better picture of the ancient world, but we are not missing anything in a natural scientific / mathematical sense.
You'd have to be really careful about how you do it though. Like go in with some kind of advanced scanning device make copies of literally everything. Don't change anything else about history and get the heck back to the present with all that knowledge. Then upload it for free to the internet on a single easy-to-use website. Put just 2 advertisement spots with no sound allowed on every single page of the website. Not like these awful clickbait websites just two ads on the side margins sitting there quietly for the users to look at so that advertisers will pay you. That people could pay a $5 monthly fee to not see ads. Kickback suck ad revenue and subscription fees. It's still technically free and you still make a profit. :)
if u built a time Mechine and saved the library then it would have been saved there for no reason to build time Mechine and go back in time and save it so no one save the library.
My partner and I were discussing the library of Alexandria a few days ago, in connection with the current Game Stop fiasco. The Library was burnt in protest at the elitism that it represented. The thing about copying documents and keeping the originals is something I may have known at one point in my life, but it's the kind of unrelatable thing that I generally tend to forget (my poor injured brain can't cope!)
"When the great library burned, the first 10,000 years of stories reduced to ash, but those stories never really vanished they became a new story, the story of the fire itself." ~Dr. Robert Ford, WestWorld

The library was like the internet of the ancient world. Imagine if we lost the internet, and all the knowledge stored in it, today? I wonder how long that would set us back? What would that do to society? The millennials would probably die of Internet withdrawals!! And have to read books!! OMG!!
How do you lose the internet? It's just technology that was built and is sustained by human ideas. They key to ideas and beliefs are the founding principles they're built on and those principles exist in human minds. Their vitality depends on human minds. Eg what Galileo saw with his telescope survived his unjust demise because the time of his ideas had come, human minds were primed for that seed. So mind not the internet, it is an extension of us but we are who make it what it is. It can never cease to exist as long as human minds conceive of it. It is what we conceive more than what is written on paper or stored in cyberspace that matters. Newton keeping his method of fluxions to himself didn't stop the invention of Calculus. Conception is everything!

Library of Alexandria was NOT founded by Alexander, but by Pharaoh Ptolemy I Soter,, one of Alexander's generals who took the Egyptian part of the Empire when Alexander died. The library had numerous fires and reconstructions over the years.
The Caliph Umar Ibn Al-Khattab (ra), when he conquered Alexandria in Egypt, it is claimed that he had burned the Library of Alexandria. The earliest quotation that is often used by proponents goes back as far as the 13th century. That is literally 500 hundred years after the demise of Umar Ibn al-Khattab (ra). Abd al-Latif al-Baghdadi who lived in the 13th century is one of the first people to allude to this. It is highly improbable that Umar Ibn al-Khattab (ra) would have taken such a decision. Besides, had he been of the view that there should be no need of any book except the Quran, then he would have also took the decision that there was no need of Churches, synonogues or fire-temples. It is historical fact, that all of the four Caliphs, Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman and Ali protected and gave security to Churches, synagogues and temples. For example, the first Caliph Abu Bakr Siddique (ra) would issue clear orders not to “desecrate” Churches and leave those who are attached to their religions alone: “Do not deluge (destroy) date-palm trees, do not kill animals, do not cut down fruit-bearing trees, DO NOT DESECRATE A CHURCH, do not kill children, do not kill women and do not kill old people. You shall soon come upon those that have secluded themselves in monasteries/churches, you must let them be so that they may SAFELY engage in that for whose sake they have secluded themselves.” (al-Sunan al-Kubra, [Mecca, Saudi Arabia: Maktaba Dar al-Baz 1994] by Ahmad bin al-Husayn al-Bayhaqi, volume 9, page 85)
Drew: Have we? Seems like we are just as petty and fearful as ever. Sure technology has come a long way, but that just means we have more efficient ways to destroy or control each other. Furthermore, the majority of the worlds population is still living in medieval conditions with medieval mindsets. Further again, even our so called ‘enlightenment’ has neglected ancient wisdoms in favour of instrumental rationality which has resulted in terrors like the WW2 holocaust and climate change. Who knows what the world would have been like if we’d kept and incorporated that libraries wisdom into our modern thought.
This legend of the demise of the Library of Alexandria is often disputed because geographically the library was quite a distance from the shore and it would be unlikely to have seen a fire spread that far.
Four HUGE moments in lost technological innovation and records: 1. Library of Alexandria burning 2. Baghdad House of Knowledge destroyed by the Mongols, losing hundreds of years of engineering and optics knowledge. 3. The Caliphate declaring math to be an abomination, setting Muslim culture back almost a thousand years 4. Death of Archimedes during the sacking of Syracuse, losing a thousand years worth of mechanical engineering designs and documents.

@@emily8223 curious as to your thoughts on evolution if youre christian.
That's not the lesson to be learned. The Lesson is don't store all your books in one Library.
how about you do, but copy them and put them in another library?
i mean, imagine having to travel by horse, boat and foot from say Athens to Alexandria just to read the second part of a book?
Correct, and to add to that, also have as many copies of the book as possible and store it around the safest places around the world, just like the concept of the doomsday vault!!
That is exactly what the clever monks in Christian monastaries did. Continously copying and translating all the books in their respective monastaries and then passed on the copies to other monastaries, or sold them, so that the knowledge could be spread and be copied again by someone else in another location, should the monastary with the original book be burned down.
@Rene It's called writing it down again.
Yknow, what monks did for centuries.
@Rene 100 people copying 1 book a day will produce 700000 copies in 19.17 years; nothing compared to the 2000 years it's been
What if the romans took the knowledge out first then burned it under direct orders. And the files are actually in the vatician's vault
pollard1997 Why doesn’t anyone use these books then? It would have helped everyone else a lot if everyone had knowledge from these books.
@@exoticcats6119 Because religious leaders in general do not want an educated populace. It's the only way they can keep selling their fantasies and then use that to control the masses, and to profit from them. It is thought the Vatican vault has lost knowledge kept in it, but I doubt much, if any, has anything to do with the Alexandrian library.
@@hristoitchov It could be very plausible since Vatican was built before Christianity was accepted in Roman empire. And Vatican was always though to be some sacred place. Also for example Obelisk in Vatican is directly from Egypt I don't want to go much deep in to crazy theories but it is a big thought that Pharaohs actually hid themselves in Europe and along that they may have moved Alexandrian library to Vatican. Vatican is also being guarded by Swiss Army and Swiss in general is thought to be run by those Pharaohs but I know its big conspiracy theory. But there is a lot of symbolism considering all of that that connects. For example Christian cross derives from Egyptian cross...
This video is false. There were no scrolls in the library. It was falling into disrepair, and they eventually sent all the scrolls throughout Europe. The fire may have happened, but it definitely did not burn the scrolls.

@Jeremy Kirkpatrick Uh if you know about the Library of Alexandria you probably know where the fuck is it you sour sock
I got a tear in my balls...
The Great Library lost its funding before Caesar's time, and it was all downhill from there. Once a library loses government support, the collection tends to evaporate either thru decay or pilferage. By Caesar's time, there were very few researchers there, and they spent most of their time going down rabbit-holes of literary criticism.
So I think that the loss of the Great Library is a mere legend, a romanticized tale like the Elephants' Graveyard.
The only thing I regret losing is the historical works of the emperor Claudius. He gathered all the available records of the Etruscans and the Carthaginians, and wrote two histories of them. Even his harshest critics admit that Claudius was gifted as a historian (like, "He should have stuck with writing histories.") And he had adequate sources to work from. His works were the definitive histories of those times, superseding all others, and then ALL of the materials were later lost.
We know from surviving Roman records that he built an annex to the Great Library and deposited his manuscripts there.
Only the elites were allowed to read those scrolls. If they had allowed everyone to read, appreciate and copy them, those scrolls might never have been lost.
Meta In the ancient ages most people could not read
Based on what we know today, the scrolls would have probably for the most part been vandalized and stolen xd
True, even in modern libraries, shits get stolen. Guess what Greece needed was a strict membership system. If only we had that, we would have flying cars by now
If the Library of Alexandria was around today, I would totally go read a lot of shit.
Now here we are , present day earth. Slash your wrists style society and lifestyle. Take me back to the days of the medjay, Pharos , gods. Im a true believer now , this world is damn boring due to having to work just to eat,shit n piss. The elites ruined those scrolls because if they hadn't nobody would be working or paying taxes , its all a scheme. The lord says we all should have had our own land, our own things therefore theres no envy or jealousy , this world is a luck and right place right time style environment atm. History is the key, hopefully all these weird things happening around world will wipe out half or 3-4 of humanity.

And anything regarding religion
Nothing personal, pure business
Not a christian myself, but I do feel it gets unjustly judged too often today.
Case in point: Eugenics and the Holocaust. This was a titanic massacre done in the name of science. Darwin's theory of evolution is one of the greatest creations to ever come from science. It kicked opened the doors to the ancient universe theory, united all the fields of geology, biology, and ecology, with all those strange bone/shell shaped rocks we were finding everywhere. It also revealed our place and our behaviors and nature as animals on this planet. But then some people twisted this idea and decided we needed to push evolution further by selectively eliminating traits, people, and whole races that they deemed unfit to breed.
You also have to consider the many innovative, extraordinary, and powerful new ways that science has given us to kill each other: from gatling guns with explosive bullets, to sarin gas and nerve agents, to engineered weaponized superviruses, to single missiles that contain up to 12 thermonuclear warheads that will each target separate cities hundreds of miles apart.
Religion, on the other hand, gave us the Golden Rule. It was the impetus for the quakers (religious evangelists) to lead escaped slaves to the north. It also is the leading source of charity worldwide. The obvious conclusion is that neither religion nor science themselves are "good or bad". It's how Man decides to use them that matters.
CheetahFoxx Religion consistently kidnaps science to wage wars. Pure science does not start wars but with religion to act as tinder, science can be used to spark it. Even thing such as the holocaust were at least partially religion motivated (a major factor)
Science taken in without views created by the existence (or lack there of )of religion has not currently been used to initiate any wars,battles or conflicts.Religion on the other hand well... it didnt just leave a mark is burnt history

@@AeternaQueen where's the part with the lizard people?
No it's hidden in the only place that's just as secret and holy. The Vatican. That's where they took it.
in college i wrote a 10 page paper on why the "burning" (there were many separate fires over its life) of the library had essentially no impact on the course of scientific discovery or the proliferation of knowledge. basically the library was heavily defunded and the position of running the library had gone from being reserved for skilled librarians to being given away as a reward to people who did political favors causing it to be largely run in to the ground before it was destroyed. It is true though there were other great libraries in other empires and very little was lost in that incident. I suggested that the myth was so pervasive in modern society because we like to believe that we have progressed and view ourselves as more civilized so we fantasize that religious barbarians took the knowledge from us but ita funny to think that the past is in many ways very similar to the present. the library was destroyed by political corruption and bureaucracy.
Carl Sagan's "Cosmos" features a whole episode. It's a great watch!
I wouldn't say a it set humanity back a millenium, but it destroyed many records which otherwise would have given us much, much more knowledge of their respective time and how live was there. Also, if it survived, it would probably be the biggest library of all times, which would have made Alexandria more popular among the people and thus elevated greece's worth as a whole.

Not a lot would have changed. The burning was a terrible tragedy, but the halting of scientific progress from 450 AD to 1450 AD in Europe was primarily due to the dominance of the catholic church and the Pope in Europe. There was no "path to immortality" in the library. The 1000 year loss was due to the dominance of religion that actively prevented further scientific progress. Until it was overcome during the Renaissance.
We would have known many more ancient Greek plays and would have a much better picture of the ancient world, but we are not missing anything in a natural scientific / mathematical sense.
Time to add this to my list of "Why We Need To Make A Time Machine"
You'd have to be really careful about how you do it though. Like go in with some kind of advanced scanning device make copies of literally everything. Don't change anything else about history and get the heck back to the present with all that knowledge. Then upload it for free to the internet on a single easy-to-use website. Put just 2 advertisement spots with no sound allowed on every single page of the website. Not like these awful clickbait websites just two ads on the side margins sitting there quietly for the users to look at so that advertisers will pay you.
That people could pay a $5 monthly fee to not see ads. Kickback suck ad revenue and subscription fees. It's still technically free and you still make a profit. :)

The library was like the internet of the ancient world. Imagine if we lost the internet, and all the knowledge stored in it, today? I wonder how long that would set us back? What would that do to society? The millennials would probably die of Internet withdrawals!! And have to read books!! OMG!!
How do you lose the internet? It's just technology that was built and is sustained by human ideas. They key to ideas and beliefs are the founding principles they're built on and those principles exist in human minds. Their vitality depends on human minds. Eg what Galileo saw with his telescope survived his unjust demise because the time of his ideas had come, human minds were primed for that seed. So mind not the internet, it is an extension of us but we are who make it what it is. It can never cease to exist as long as human minds conceive of it. It is what we conceive more than what is written on paper or stored in cyberspace that matters. Newton keeping his method of fluxions to himself didn't stop the invention of Calculus. Conception is everything!

The Caliph Umar Ibn Al-Khattab (ra), when he conquered Alexandria in Egypt, it is claimed that he had burned the Library of Alexandria. The earliest quotation that is often used by proponents goes back as far as the 13th century. That is literally 500 hundred years after the demise of Umar Ibn al-Khattab (ra). Abd al-Latif al-Baghdadi who lived in the 13th century is one of the first people to allude to this.
It is highly improbable that Umar Ibn al-Khattab (ra) would have taken such a decision. Besides, had he been of the view that there should be no need of any book except the Quran, then he would have also took the decision that there was no need of Churches, synonogues or fire-temples.
It is historical fact, that all of the four Caliphs, Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman and Ali protected and gave security to Churches, synagogues and temples. For example, the first Caliph Abu Bakr Siddique (ra) would issue clear orders not to “desecrate” Churches and leave those who are attached to their religions alone:
“Do not deluge (destroy) date-palm trees, do not kill animals, do not cut down fruit-bearing trees, DO NOT DESECRATE A CHURCH, do not kill children, do not kill women and do not kill old people. You shall soon come upon those that have secluded themselves in monasteries/churches, you must let them be so that they may SAFELY engage in that for whose sake they have secluded themselves.” (al-Sunan al-Kubra, [Mecca, Saudi Arabia: Maktaba Dar al-Baz 1994] by Ahmad bin al-Husayn al-Bayhaqi, volume 9, page 85)

"Biggest human erection"
This legend of the demise of the Library of Alexandria is often disputed because geographically the library was quite a distance from the shore and it would be unlikely to have seen a fire spread that far.
Yes, yes 😂😂😂😂 that was the best end ever.
"Unless it's 50 shades of grey."
Four HUGE moments in lost technological innovation and records: 1. Library of Alexandria burning 2. Baghdad House of Knowledge destroyed by the Mongols, losing hundreds of years of engineering and optics knowledge. 3. The Caliphate declaring math to be an abomination, setting Muslim culture back almost a thousand years 4. Death of Archimedes during the sacking of Syracuse, losing a thousand years worth of mechanical engineering designs and documents.
