Hypatia was a woman … not a man. She lived around 360 A.D. to 415 A.D., in the city of Alexandria, Egypt. Although women were neither respected nor considered even worthy of an education, her father educated her. Like her father, she became a curator of the Great Library of Alexandria. Hypatia was recognized to be one of the greatest of female teachers, mathematicians, scientists, and philosophers of her time.
The city is named for the ever modest Alexander the Great. 4th century BCE. So it is very unlikely that the library – started later under Ptolemy I in the 3rd century BCE – could have been burned in the 5th century B.C.
Tarzan was going to take all this down but his notebook fell out of the bottom of his loin cloth when the shots were fired. Oh wait, that’s not his notebook.

The architecture of the place even changes sound. From Kapow (panel 6) to Katow (panel 5). Amazing. And still nobody drinks the water.
