Who Really Destroyed the Library of Alexandria?

FULL EPISODE: https://youtu.be/_gH8U5rJCD0

Who really destroyed the Library of Alexandria? This insightful episode takes a deep dive into one of history’s most enduring mysteries—a story of knowledge lost and power preserved. Through a critical examination of historical records and modern analysis, we unravel the series of events that led to the library’s decline: from Julius Caesar’s siege of Alexandria to the actions of Emperor Aurelian, Theophilus, and even the debated Arab conquests. Was it a slow-motion tragedy of decay or a deliberate erasure by political and religious powers?

Join us as we explore unique perspectives, from conspiracy theories about suppressed texts to the possibility of hidden survival and smuggled knowledge influencing later civilizations like Constantinople and Baghdad. Drawing from expert sources and historical accounts, this must-watch episode challenges mainstream narratives, questioning whether these losses were accidents or calculated moves to control knowledge and maintain power.

As a seasoned storyteller and historian, Jeremy Ryan Slate brings his expertise to dissect these theories, offering you a fresh lens on history’s most debated events.
