The answer to your question is yes, but.... Under Egyptian law or custom, a female could rule, but had to have a male co-ruler. That's the reason her father left the kingdom to Cleopatra and her brother, Ptolemy XIII with Rome as their guardians. Well Cleopatra got around this inconvenience after both her brothers were dead by making her little son, Caesarion, her co-ruler.
