possible = / = true. But the knowledge that has been lost because it still stands. The humanity lost a great source of information.

Also possible, but not necessarily true

IKR why?????

Alexandria library was largest in ancient times all world knowledge was gathered in one place
imagine all the great knowledge we could have today if the great library wasn't burn

-Livy's History of Rome, written between 63 BC and AD14, says that 40,000 scrolls were destroyed in the fire started by Caesar. Greek historian Plutarch (died AD120) mentions that the fire destroyed 'the great Library' and Roman historian Dio Cassius (cAD 165 - 235) mentions a warehouse of manuscripts being destroyed during the conflagration.

Wikipedia lol

"... it is possible that most of the material from the Library of Alexandria actually survived, ..."

It kills the credibility of anyone saying most of the knowledge was saved. Only the saved knowledge is known to be saved. No one can say how much knowledge was lost since lost knowledge is unrecoverable.... Maybe 40 000 scrolls were burned and the knowledge they contained was already preserved elsewhere... maybe the 40 000 scrolls were encoded using geometric hieroglyphs and the content would have amounted to a billion scrolls had they been written out. We don't know what was lost. But let's argue about it anyway since that seems more fun than doing research.

When germans invaded Yugoslavia 1941, they bombed Beograd and hit public library. 300,000 scrolls and books were destroyed including medieval books 1000 years old. Invaluable knowledge was lost that day.

Humans are really miserable beings.

On May 10, 1933, university students throughout Germany burned upwards of 25,000 volumes of "un-German" books, presaging an era of state censorship and control of culture.
Among those works burned were the writings of nineteenth-century German Jewish poet Heinrich Heine, who wrote "Dort, wo man Bücher verbrennt, verbrennt man am Ende auch Menschen": "Where books are burned, in the end people will be burned."
