Cleopatra has never inspired others except in the advertising world. The few positive things that she did have been overshadowed by all the negative hype about her. Her image/name has been used by advertisers for everything from perfumes, cigarettes, revealing costumes, incense, etc.

Marc Antony

Mark Antony died in 30 BC, and shortly thereafter, Cleopatra took her own life. Following Antony's defeat by Octavian (the future Emperor Augustus), Cleopatra faced the prospect of being paraded as a captive in Rome. To avoid this humiliation, she chose to commit suicide, reportedly by allowing a snake to bite her. Thus, while Antony's death preceded hers, Cleopatra was not killed by anyone; she died by her own hand.

The last known descendant of Cleopatra VII, the last active ruler of the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt, is often considered to be her son Caesarion, whom she had with Julius Caesar. After Cleopatra's death in 30 BC, Caesarion was captured and killed by Octavian's forces. The Ptolemaic line continued through her other children, particularly with Mark Antony, but Cleopatra's direct lineage effectively ended with Caesarion. Subsequent claims to her legacy have been made, but they are not direct descendants.

Cleopatra's tomb has not been found. Therefore we don't know if she were mummified or not. However as she followed the Egyptian religion, there's a good possibility that she was actually mummified. We will not know for certain until her tomb is found.

He was 22 when he died. Well his mother was evil so I don't blame the Octavian army.

Cicero attended one of the receptions where Cleopatra presided. He was not impressed with her and in fact, complained to his friend Atticus that she was indolent and in addition, was insulted by one of her servants a day later.

where is the answer? I see Repair Pool leak which has nothing to do with the question. My Question is What was Cleopatra Contributions to Egypt"

Cleopatra is infamous due to the propaganda spread around by Octavian. Although the object of the propaganda was Antony, Cleopatra was the cause. Then William Shakespeare put his own fictional twist on her in his play which added to her reputation.

With the clear vision of hindsight we can say yes, Cleopatra had a few interesting beliefs. She thought that she was Isis, she thought that she could win and rule Rome, are just two of them.

No, she was not that significant of a pharaoh for the Egyptians to erect any type of monument to her memory. Cleopatra herself did not build anything except a temple to Julius Caesar. The only image of her is carved-into the temple wall at Dendara, where she finished a project that her father had begun.

The Roman empire ruled Egypt after the death of Cleopatra.

No, not yet.

There is no real mention of any domestic cats in Cleopatra's household even if she was Pharaoh. Since Cleopatra was Greek, not Egyptian, it is unclear whether she was a devotee of Egyptian religion or not. It is known that she maintained her residence in Alexandria, but the question remains, did she worship in the Egyptian manner?

If she did, then the cat would have been part of her household. Bastet was a well followed Egyptian goddess, identified by the Greek Cleopatra as Artemis, the Greek goddess of the moon. Since the physical representation of Bastet is a domestic cat, it would seem certain that there were cats in her household.

But did she personally have a named cat? No one knows.

Cleopatra never accomplished much of any significance. Her main accomplishment was her deal with Caesar which gave her the throne. Her other "accomplishments" would be giving birth to four children who lived.

Yes, Cleo died when she was a Pharaoh. she was the last Pharaoh of Egypt.

We can't say for certain if Cleopatra had herself wrapped in a carpet to gain access to Caesar. Some sources say she was wrapped in a carpet, others say she was in a large jug, and yet others say she was in a laundry sack. However, the story is so widespread, that she must have wrapped herself in something to get to Caesar.

Cleopatra VII did not save her country. Read a history book! She lost her country to the Roman empire.

No. Cleopatra lost that war, big time. In addition, she also lost her kingdom.

Cleopatra dressed for the occasion. For regular daily wear she more than likely wore the Greek chiton and for dinners or banquets a more elaborate version of it. For Egyptian outings or rituals she liked to dress in the colorful clothes of the goddess Isis as she considered herself to be the "New Isis".

Cleopatra was neither a farmer, hunter-gatherer, or a trader. She was a queen ruling one of the ancient world's most important countries. You could loosely say that she was in the "trader" group as Egypt was a hub of commerce and trade due to its location.

No. Caesar never knew Nefertiti. Nefertiti lived over a thousand years before Caesar's time.

Cleopatra.

Maybe is the best answer to your question.It is said that Cleopatra had herself rolled in a rug to gain access to Caesar by some sources, while other sources say she was in a laundry bag.
