The Two Great Structures of Ancient ALEXANDRIA, Egypt...
...are one and the same!

The Pharos Lighthouse and the Library of Alexandria.

After all, what is a library if not a repository of knowledge (LIGHT)?

Added to the obvious grammatical metaphor is the fact that they are believed to have been constructed at the same time. What a coincidence!

But of course it did, dear. Lol

Of course it burned... all through the night, giving warning to ships.

A beacon (either way you choose to symbolize it).

See how that works?

Now if people would only learn to read the Bible thusly, they’d understand why it’s known as “the greatest story ever told”.

So the Library of Alexandria and the Lighthouse at Alexandria (one of the seven wonders of the ancient world) are the same thing.

A house of Light = A repository of wisdom, aka a Library.

Thanks. That’s about it. Just that the two things are actually ONE thing.

But if anyone has any other info or opinions, feel free to chime in.

I wonder if the Knights Templar got ahold of any of the scrolls that were once housed in the Library of Alexandria.

No. Islam wasn’t “invented” yet. It’s said the Christians burned it down.

Proteus is heavily cratered, showing no sign of any geological modification.[13] The largest crater, Pharos, has a diameter from 230 to 260 km.[6] Its depth is about 10–15 km.[4] The crater has a central dome on its floor a few kilometres high.[4] Pharos is the only named surface feature on this moon: the name is Greek and refers to the island where Proteus reigned.[17] In addition to Pharos there are several craters 50–100 km in diameter and many more with diameters less than 50 km.[4]

Other landforms on Proteus include linear features such as scarps, valleys, and grooves. The most prominent one runs parallel to the equator to the west of Pharos.

The Dirac sea is a theoretical model of the vacuum as an infinite sea of particles with negative energy. It was first postulated by the British physicist Paul Dirac in 1930[1] to explain the anomalous negative-energy quantum states predicted by the Dirac equation for relativistic electrons (electrons traveling near the speed of light).[2] The positron, the antimatter counterpart of the electron, was originally conceived of as a hole in the Dirac sea, before its experimental discovery in 1932.[nb 1]

In hole theory, the solutions with negative time evolution factors[clarification needed] are reinterpreted as representing the positron, discovered by Carl Anderson. The interpretation of this result requires a Dirac sea, showing that the Dirac equation is not merely a combination of special relativity and quantum mechanics, but it also implies that the number of particles cannot be conserved.[3]

The neutrino is so named because it is electrically neutral and because its rest mass is so small (-ino) that it was long thought to be zero. The mass of the neutrino is much smaller than that of the other known elementary particles.[1] The weak force has a very short range, the gravitational interaction is extremely weak, and neutrinos do not participate in the strong interaction.[4] Thus, neutrinos typically pass through normal matter unimpeded and undetected.[2][3]
