In 272 CE, Queen Zenobia of Nabataea(Naba what-a?) launched a war against Emperor Aurelian and struck into Egypt (Uh oh! Egypt will not be happy!). The harbor of Alexandria was badly damaged,and it's likely that most of what remained of the library was burned! Wow! It was burned! But I wonder, who built the library and why?
