Cleopatra.... I guess they ran out of popular Greek heroes Cleopatra was a Greek. She was the last of the Helenistic dynasty known as the Ptolemaics and was descended from Alexander's general called, obviously enough Ptolemy.. She just happened to rule Egypt That's on a par with saying that Gt, Britain is ruled by a German, Cleopatra was definitely fully assimilated as an Egyptian, perhaps the dynasty did have Greek (Macedonian) roots 300 years previously but even the early Ptolemaics made Egyptian marriages. Well, not only a Greek but an incestuous dynasty. A well recorded one also. Your Egyptian chappies/lassies would be who, exactly? Cheers, dba |
