Yes, that's correct! Cleopatra VII, the famous queen of ancient Egypt, was of Greek descent, not Egyptian. She was a member of the Ptolemaic dynasty, which was of Macedonian Greek origin and descended from one of Alexander the Great's generals, Ptolemy I Soter.
The Ptolemaic rulers, including Cleopatra, ruled Egypt for several centuries after Alexander's conquest, and they often intermarried within their own family to maintain power. Cleopatra was well-known for her intelligence, charisma, and political acumen. Her relationships with influential Romans, including Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, played a significant role in the politics of the Roman Republic during that time.
Despite being of Greek heritage, Cleopatra embraced Egyptian culture and presented herself as a pharaoh, aligning with the traditions and religious practices of the Egyptian people. Her story is a fascinating blend of Greek and Egyptian influences and is a crucial part of both Greek and Egyptian history.
