The Beginning of the Ptolemaic Era

In history - and indeed in all branches of knowledge that we study - we do not find at our disposal any authentic references that can be used for study, comparison, or extrapolation. Of all the historical records whose research is taken as the basis for the lesson, only one or two books have been translated into Arabic, and the researcher would rather return to their non-Arab origins than continue to focus on unraveling those mysteries that the style of Arabic sentences throws at him in them. In addition, the library of historical records - especially the old ones, which is the basic subject of history - has hundreds of volumes, and it is necessary to translate these records into the Arabic language. The institution that should undertake this great work is the universities.
