After the twentieth dynasty (1200-1085 B.C.), Kemet was subject to foreign domination by Libya, Sudan, Assyria, and Persia, with only a brief period of independence in 405 B.C., which ended in 332 B.C. When Alexander, the so-called "Great" (a former student of Aristotle), and his army INVADED.
Thereafter, the Greeks founded the Ptolemaic dynasty (Greeks in Egypt) and built the city of Alexandria to honor Alexander "the Great" and Hellenistic culture, with the Alexandria Library as its hallmark. This library was built "unscrupulously" upon ancient Kemetic knowledge and the "confiscated" documents of Athens.
After the invasion of Alexander, the royal temples and libraries were "plundered and pillaged" and knowledge of the culture of Africa has been lost because of the destruction of ancient records
