You don't really want an answer for the second question, but I'll guess that she engaged in sexual congress with a number of people. That's just a guess you know.

Regarding "pharoah", the Greeks eliminated the previous ruling family when they took over. The set up one of their own as pharoah. Many tens of thousands of Greeks moved into the country. Things happened.

And why do the history books say that she was the daughter of a King who took the throne with her brother... Definitely not family values stuff but she would have to have some serious skills to sleep her way to a throne without some royal lineage...

I am aware that Alexander was Greek and that his armies left a genetic impression but I am not sure you would be able to say that Cleopatra was Greek... However, just for the sake of discussion, are you saying that she has been historically portrayed by women that have similar appearance and features... If so, who do you think presents the most accurate representation of her...
