Arabic in Cards

Kept Alive in Arabic

Greek books lost in whole or in part, whose missing parts survive only in their Arabic translation.

5 cards
Apollonius's Conics Diophantus's Arithmetica in Arabic Hero's Mechanics

Why these cards?

Each card is a Greek book whose original, or part of it, historians of science record as lost, and whose lost part reached us only in Arabic, or in a translation made from Arabic. Each card says exactly what Arabic kept.
