The Murder That SILENCED Ancient Philosophy Forever

March 415 CE. Alexandria's streets ran red with the blood of history's first woman philosopher—torn apart for daring to think. This video uncovers the forbidden truth behind Hypatia of Alexandria—the woman who wore the philosopher's cloak when doing so could cost her life. In an empire where women were silenced, she stood in the public square teaching Neoplatonism to crowds that hung on every word. But visibility has a price. When Hypatia draped the tribon over her shoulders—that sacred symbol of philosophical authority—she crossed a line the patriarchal world would never forgive. Her students became bishops. Her lectures drew hundreds. Even the Prefect of Alexandria sought her counsel. Then Bishop Cyril saw an opportunity. What followed wasn't just murder—it was erasure. Stripped naked in a church. Flayed with sharpened oyster shells. Dismembered. Burned. The parabalani monks made certain the message was clear: women who dare to think publicly will be destroyed. Yet sixteen centuries later, her name endures—a warning and an inspiration. This is the story they tried to bury. SOURCES MacTutor History of Mathematics Archive, University of St Andrews (J.J.
