No, that is just a myth. A poisonous snake bite is a very lingering and painful way to die and Cleopatra would never have chosen that way to make her exit.

It has been told that Cleopatra grabbed a snake and let it bite her so that she may die because her lover had killed himself. But this is just a myth. No, Cleopatra did not die by a snake bite. There are several good reasons that she would not use a snake to kill her. The ancient writers say that she died by some type of poison and modern research has come up with the theory that she died of a combination of three poisons which were readily available to her.
Octavian the ruler of rome had Cleopatra locked up she asked for something but also asked for a highly poisonus snake inside seceretly. She took the snake and let it bite her she died instantly----at least that is the fantasy version of Cleo's suicide. The truth is that she died of some type of poison, the current thinking is that it was a mixture of three different poisons. A luxury loving queen like Cleopatra would never take the risk of a slow, agonizing death by a cobra bite.
Cleopatra's reign ended in 30 b.c. when she commited suicide to save herself and Mark Antony from being killed by Augustus Caesar. Also Mark Antony killed himself first, because he and Cleopatra had just been defeated by Augustus Caesar and he mistakenly thought Cleopatra was dead. then Cleopatra let a deadly snake bite her.
