Okay, sorry, perhaps that was a bit on the inappropriate side of the Nile. It was meant to be flippant. King Herod (and he was a bloodthirsty killer) was among those offended by her compulsive sexuality. She bid him dismiss all their servants, then wanted to get it on. And that's just the, uh, tip of the iceberg.
Some photos of ancient artifacts showing Cleopatra the VIIth (I think Alexander the Great's dad married the first Cleopatra, after he dumped Al's mother, but won't swear to it without a web search).
