Cleopatra Cleopatra Cleopatra VII Cleopatra The Queen of Egypt "Life of Cleopatra" by Craig T. Staunton Cleopatra VII's family had been ruling Egypt since 305 B.C., when Ptolemy I declared himself King of Egypt sometime after Alexander the Great's death. The Ptolemy family was of Macedonian decent, not of Egyptian. The capital city which they ruled from, Alexandria, had been established by Alexander and is a port city on the Mediterranean and Nile River. This made Alexandria very important commercially, and it also became an intellectually and artistically important city as well. Cleopatra VII's father was Ptolemy XII Neos Dionysos "Auletes", who began his rule of Egypt in 80 B.C. He was not well respected and thought weak, as is exhibited by his popular nickname "Auletes", which means "flute-player" in Greek. Cleopatra VII's mother could possibly be Cleopatra V Tryphaena, who either died or disappeared in 68 B.C., right after Cleopatra VII's birth in 69 B.C. Cleopatra VII had two older sisters, Cleopatra VI and Berenice IV, and one younger sister, Arsinoe IV. She also had two y! ounger brothers, Ptolemy XIII and Ptolemy XIV. In 58 B.C. Berenice IV (and perhaps Cleopatra VI) took over the kingdom, forcing Ptolemy XII "Auletes" to flee to cleopatra, ptolemy, bc, antony, caesar, egypt, been, rome, iv, arsinoe, xiii, war, pompey, octavian, years, queen, named, king, xiv, two, might, cleopatra's, because, alexandria, women, palace, alexander, xii, throne, married, held, died, city, birth, after, time, thought, though, son, ruled, roman, pothinus, outside, out, one, old, octavia, money, library, killed, himself Word Count: 2671 Acceptance_Essays American_History Anatomy_&_Physiology Animal_Science_&_Zoology Anthropology Architecture Art Astronomy Aviation Biographies Book_Reports Business Computers Creative_Writing Current_Events Economics Education Engineering English Environmental_Science Ethics European_History Film_&_TV Foreign_Languages Geography Government_&_Politics Health_&_Beauty History_Other Human_Sexuality Legal_Issues Marketing Mathematics Medicine Miscellaneous Music Mythology Philosophy Physics Poetry Political_Science Psychology Religion Science Shakespeare Social_Issues Sociology Speech Sports_&_Recreation Supernatural Technology Theater Theses_&_Dissertations
