The Secret Tomb Of Cleopatra Is Finally Found
Do you ever ponder what mysteries the past may still hold for us? One of the greatest riddles of all time may have been solved after almost two decades of investigation by a team of archaeologists. An ancient tunnel, buried beneath a temple in Egypt, is suspected by some to be the way to Cleopatra and Mark Antony's lost tomb. Join us as we investigate this remarkable discovery and uncover the truth behind one of the world's greatest legends.
Egyptian queen is famous in history and theater as Julius Caesar's lover and later as Mark Antony's wife. After her father, Ptolemy XII, died in 51 BCE, she became queen and governed with her two brothers, Ptolemy XIII and Ptolemy XIV, and her son, Ptolemy XV Caesar. After Octavian's Roman army beat their united forces, Antony and Cleopatra committed suicide, and Egypt fell under Roman control. Cleopatra actively affected Roman politics during a critical moment, and she became the paradigm of the romantic femme fatale, as no other woman in antiquity had.
