    Iirc they have 3D models of cleopatra and she is ugly ash. Maybe for being an inbred royal she was attractive.

      I would not say she was ugly at all, based on what I’ve seen.

      Cleopatra artistic reconstruction utilizing various paraphernalia which may depict her.

      Another using a similar technique

        Ok yeah that’s a quite attractive woman. Add in that she parties like nobody’s business and may very well be the smartest person you’ve ever met.

        Honestly it’s remarkable someone so inbred could look that good

        Huh. No wonder she wore her husband’s ceremonial beard, she had a weak chin.

          She’s Greek/Macedonian with a bit of Egyptian. It’s not like she was going to have a small nose. And it was Italians who kept falling in love with her.

      Back then people had only seen like five women, so it was just a small sample size.

        Both Julius Cesar and Mark Anthony wrote high praise for her mouth. Now whether that means her oratory skills or something else… it’s anyone’s guess.
