Few names from antiquity evoke the same mystique, glamour, and controversy as Cleopatra VII, the last active ruler of the Ptolemaic dynasty of Egypt. A queen both revered and reviled across centuries of historical retellings, she has been cast variously as a seductive manipulator, a brilliant political strategist, a tragic lover, and an ambitious ruler who dared to challenge Rome's expanding grip. Yet for all the drama and detail surrounding her life, Cleopatra's final resting place remains one of the great archaeological mysteries of the ancient world. Despite centuries of speculation and modern expeditions, her tomb has never been found.
