How do Egyptologists know what Cleopatra looked like?
Nobody knows exactly what Cleopatra looked like because we have no replica of her face. For example, we know what Antony, Caesar and Octavian looked like because the Romans made lifelike busts of their celebrities. The Egyptians, however, did not. Most of the Egyptian art was stylized, with just enough distinction of the facial features so the viewer could know who he was viewing. This makes it next to impossible to get a clear view of her face. (Yes, there is a realistic bust of a head that is many times used to represent Cleo, but it's only said to be Cleopatra. Nothing definite) Another difficulty in describing what Cleopatra looked like is the fact that she only minted a very few gold coins, it any at all. The coins that she did issue were all of softer metals, such as silver, and over time and with use, they became worn or distorted. There have been facial reconstructions made of her face by way of the coins, but again, they are nothing more than educated guesses.
