- PaulDavisThe1st 6y agoMostly the Arabic civilization(s) next door, which managed to retain (and extend) much (not all) of the knowledge of the Greco-Roman civilizations for several centuries. [EDIT: Along with various libraries throughout Europe that also acted as repositories for Greco-Roman knowledge ]
