The Armenian Embassy in Cairo recently organized an exhibition
of Ancient Armenian manuscripts at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina to
celebrate the 1600th anniversary of the creation of the Armenian
alphabet. Representatives of foreign missions, cultural and scientific
leaders of the Egyptian community as well as journalists and members
of the Armenian community in both cities participated in the opening
ceremony. A conference on Armenian-Egyptian historical and cultural
relations was also held at the Bibliotheca and was inaugurated by
Dr. Rouben Karapetian (Ambassador of Armenia) and Dr. Ismail Serageldin
(director of the Bibliotheca).
