Cleopatra and Mark Antony - Real Faces - Ancient Egypt - Rome

video thumbnail
A look at a most important era of ancient Rome, transitioning from a Republic, into a more authoritarian regime, the civil war between the Optimates and the Populates, Republic or Empire.
This time we examine the granite bust, that is believed to depict the famous Queen of Egypt, Cleopatra the last monarch of the Hellenistic Ptolemaic kingdom.
We look at the faces of the two most powerful men of Rome. Mark Antony and Octavian, initially allies who formed the Second Triumvirate, to avenge Caesar's death, only to clash a decade later at the naval battle of Actium.
