Cleopatra did not kill herself; rather, she died by suicide after the defeat of her forces against Octavian in 30 BCE. Facing the loss of her kingdom and the imminent capture by Roman forces, she used a venomous snake to end her life, believing it to be a way to maintain her dignity and avoid humiliation. Her death marked the end of the Ptolemaic rule in Egypt and the beginning of Roman dominance in the region.
