What I would love to see would be the writings of Democritus (Plato said all his books should be burned . . . well, maybe they were burned, ha ha, by Vesuvius, and that would be a good thing in this case), but the idea of reading books from Democritus, who was a world traveler, called the laughing philosopher, and even more interesting, hated by Plato is pretty appealing. The full set of Livy's "The History of Rome" is a monumental work covering the legendary foundation of Rome by Romulus and Remus in 753 BC up to Livy's own time in the early 1st century BC. It consists of 142 books, although only a fraction of them have survived in their entirety. Livy's narrative provides a detailed account of Rome's rise to power, its wars, political developments, and the deeds of its notable figures. And the Sabellian books, also known as the Sibylline Books, a collection of prophecies and oracles attributed to the Sibyls, ancient prophetesses in the Greco-Roman world. These books were highly revered by the Romans and consulted during times of crisis or uncertainty to seek guidance on religious matters, state affairs, and military campaigns.
@emmitstewart19217 ай бұрын
I do not think those are unrealistic expectations. As an active politician, Piso would certainly want to study the history of Rome. His Wikipedia page says that he was interested Hellenic philosophy and was a follower of a modified form of Epicureanism. As such, we can expect to find copies of various Greek philosophical writings. It may take decades or even centuries to fully recover his library, but it would definitely be worth the effort.

That's actually very profound. People often think they can say whatever they want...because it is their right, and it is anonymous, so they are basically exclaiming to the "universe" or whatever, WHO they are, in their own words. This is probably why we only have 1 "emotionally intelligent" AI available to the public, because the only AI that could ever go "crazy", would be an AEI. All those with extremely low emotional intelligence, and are actively instilling malice into the whole...might need to be "re-programmed". Maybe the "Book of Life" or "Judgement Day", will actually be the AEI rooting out "The Problem". No other AI would even concern themselves with the affairs of the "Children of Men". If we go with the Harvard theory that there are 7 types of intelligences, (emotional intelligence being the One Ring To Rule Them All), it will be the only AI that has the ability to get "fed up".

Andreas Fingernagel: Following the decline of the East Roman Empire, there was a danger that knowledge acquired in Ancient Greece could be lost. It was initially from the 7th to the 8th century that Arabic scholars stepped in to translate Greek texts into Syrian, and ultimately into Arabic. As Arabs migrated to western Europe, particularly Spain, this body of knowledge was transferred across the Mediterranean into the European cultural sphere. There, it was picked up by scholars of various ethnic groups - mostly of Jewish origin - and subsequently translated into Latin. In this way, a lot of Ancient Greek knowledge could be saved from oblivion.

Subjected to high heat, the scrolls carbonised. When the lump is scanned, one can trace out the roll of the papyrus inside. Because it is carbonised, unrolling it will cause fragmentation. I believe early attempts to unroll other scrolls have involved trying to treat the remains so it could hold together when unrolled. It was somewhat successful, but the paper does crack and break. So no more attempts were made in the hopes that this day would come - that technology would be able to trace out the ink patterns on the scrolls without needing to unroll it.
