Zoals ik al stelde, het is bisschop Theophilus die het laatste beetje van de bibliotheek vernietigd heeft in 391.

The Serapeum was vandalized and demolished in 391 AD under a decree issued by Coptic Christian Pope Theophilus of Alexandria, but it does not seem to have housed books at the time and was mainly used as a gathering place for Neoplatonist philosophers following the teachings of Iamblichus.
