Many of the scholars and writers around the world visited Alexandria in Egypt because of its "Great Library," which was considered "universal." The library is said to have been established during the reign of <em>Ptolemy</em>, a famous Greek mathematician. It consisted of thousands of scrolls for people to study. Many of the scholars and writers frequented the place such as<em> Apollonius of Rhodes</em> and <em>Aristophanes of Byzantium.</em> However, the library declined many years later due to <u>lack of funding</u>. It is also said to have dwindled due to <u>lack of support.</u>
