There are two theories, both viable, as to why Cleo sent a message saying she was dead. One is that it was simply a miscommunication, possibly an oral message rather than written. In his panic, (remember, Alexandria was in turmoil at the time) the slave probably said something like "Cleopatra is in her tomb" instead of "Cleopatra is hiding in her tomb". In the first instance, anyone would think that she were dead. The second theory is that Cleopatra decided that it was time to dump Antony. She knew Antony quite well and knew of his sense of honor. By sending him a notice that she were dead, she knew Antony would either kill himself or flee Alexandria. Either way she would be rid of him and free to deal with Octavian on her own.There are two theories, both viable, as to why Cleo sent a message saying she was dead.

The quote "Let the dead bury the dead" was spoken by Atticus Finch in the novel "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee. Atticus is explaining to Scout that it is important to focus on the living and the present rather than being consumed by the past.
