The final dynasty of pharaonic Egypt was born with the death of one of the most famous men in the ancient world – Alexander the Great – and died with the dramatic suicide of one of antiquity’s most famous women – Cleopatra. The Ptolemies ruled over Egypt for almost three hundred years and ushered in the final period of Egyptian greatness by establishing the most powerful empire in the eastern Mediterranean. But they were Greek, not Egyptian, and attempted to justify their rule by merging Greek and Egyptian culture and embracing pharaonic traditions.
