Alexandria became a major source of learning due to education resources found there. Considered as the intellectual capital of the world, it had one of the best and most extensive libraries in the world which in the third century BC was said to contain 500, 000 volumes.

Alexandria also had a museum that was a center of research, with laboratories and observatories , and had scholars such as Euclid and Eratosthenes working there.

Alexandria was also a center for biblical studies. The chief librarian commissioned the oldest Greek version of the old testament, called the Septuagint.

What kind of contract outlines the obligations of a landlord and his or her renters?
inysia [295]
Renters or tenants have to sign or verbally enter into a lease agreement with the landlord. This will outline the arrangement made between them. However, not all these agreements are valid. An invalid lease can make big problems for both parties. Likewise, it can limit or hinder either party from filing a claim against the other in the court. For security, both parties should ensure that the lease agreement will hold up in court before signing.<span> </span>
