Gee whiz, fella', the Egyptians were Christianized long before the Moslems appeared in Arabia, and that was AFTER the earlier "Greek" period, and after the "Roman" period.

So, the question is, who destroyed Egypt and all it's skills and knowledge? Was it the Greeks, the Romans, the Christians, the Moslems?

It wasn't the Greeks, Romans, or Christians that burned the contents of the Library of Alexandria.

Egypt was in decline ever since the Nubians started coming in. Heck, since the Hyksos. Rome and Alexander were afterthoughts. Erasthosenes was a Greek.

Oh, good grief! No one "destroyed" Egypt and/or its skills and knowledge. It didn't ended like a brick through a plate glass window; it was more like the life cycle of some ancient tree.

Long before that I'd say, round about the time Abraham went to Egypt, but then what is meant by "Christianized".
