The Romans feared Cleopatra as they had feared only Hannibal, and they created a legend that survives to this day.

cleopatra vii philopator, pharaoh of egypt

“Cleopatra VII, the last Macedonian Greek queen of Egypt, descended of a long line of Ptolemaic kings.She did not approach Caesar wrapped in a carpet, she was not a seductress, she did not use her charm to persuade the men in her life to lose their judgement, and she did not die by the bite of an asp…Yet other important elements of her career have been bypassed in the post-antique recension: she was a Skilled naval commander, a published medical authority, and an expert royal administrator who was met with adulation throughout the eastern Mediterranean, perhaps seen by some as a messianic figure, the hope for a future Eastern Mediterranean free of Roman domination.”- Duane Roller, Cleopatra: A Biography
