 Uncover the captivating story of Cleopatra VII, Egypt’s last pharaoh, in this in-depth documentary exploring her rise, fall, and the enduring mystery of her lost tomb. Dive into the life of Cleopatra, a Greek-Egyptian queen born in 69 BCE in Alexandria, whose intelligence, charm, and mastery of nine languages shaped her reign. From her strategic alliances with Julius Caesar and Mark Antony to the dramatic Battle of Actium in 31 BCE, discover how Cleopatra navigated the clash between Egyptian tradition and Roman power. Learn about her tragic death in 30 BCE, her royal mausoleum filled with treasures, and the Romans’ efforts to erase her legacy by hiding her tomb.

Join us as we trace the centuries-long quest for Cleopatra’s tomb, from Napoleon’s 1798 expedition to modern archaeological breakthroughs at Taposiris Magna. Recent discoveries, including a 1,305-meter tunnel and artifacts like coins and Isis statues, hint at the tomb’s location, challenging Roman attempts to obscure her Greek-Egyptian identity. Using advanced technologies like ground-penetrating radar and LiDAR, archaeologists are closer than ever to unveiling the truth.
