Links to Alexandria web resources
Some links about Alexandria

This page is very much under construction and contains just a few links for a future more extensive page. In fact, this page is not much more than a note book or a skeleton.

Please note that many texts about  classic Alexandria rely rather much on anecdotes and at least pages without literary references should be treated with some suspicion.
