You must have often seen and heard people bathing with water, cow's or buffalo's milk, but do you know that there was a queen in the world who used to bathe with donkey's milk. For this, she used to get the milk of 700 donkeys every day.
Actually, we are talking about the Egyptian princess Cleopatra, who was also called the goddess of beauty. Cleopatra is not only known for her beauty, but her life was also very mysterious. Let us tell you that Cleopatra was more clever and conspiratorial than she was beautiful in appearance.
After the death of his father, Cleopatra and her brother Ptolemy Dionysus jointly received the kingdom at the age of 14. The brother did not tolerate Cleopatra's power over the kingdom and rebelled. As a result, Cleopatra lost her power and took refuge in Syria. But this princess did not give up courage. Cleopatra attacked Egypt by enticing the Roman ruler Julius Caesar, and Julius Caesar killed Ptolemy and placed Cleopatra on the throne of Egypt.
After ascending the throne, a dispute arose between Cleopatra and her younger brother over the throne. On this Cleopatra poisoned her younger brother and killed him.
After this she went to Rome and started living with Caesar. The Romans did not like this relationship, so Julius Caesar was assassinated.
After Julius Caesar left, Cleopatra fell in love with one of Julius Caesar's generals, Antony. The Romans, on the other hand, were troubled by the growing power of Egypt and in any case they did not like to see an Egyptian woman become Antony's wife. The plot was hatched again. Once during the war Antony was told that Cleopatra was no more. While it was not true. Antony was shocked to hear this and was killed by falling on his own sword.
After Caesar, Octavian took the throne of Rome. Octavian was clever; it was not possible for Cleopatra to trap him.
It is said that Cleopatra was so beautiful that she used to get the kings and military officers to get all their work done by trapping them in the web of her beauty. Not only this, he also had knowledge of more than 12 languages of the world. This was the reason that she used to get attached to anyone very soon and knew all their secrets.
In order to look beautiful, Cleopatra used to get 700 donkeys milk daily and bathe with it, so that her skin would always remain beautiful.
Cleopatra is said to be the last pharaoh to rule Egypt. Whether she was African, Caucasian or Greek, however, remains a mystery. Research on this continues till date.
Some people believe that Cleopatra committed suicide by being stung by a snake, while others say that she died due to poison. Apart from this, some people also believe that she was killed by being bitten by a snake. Thus in 30 BC Cleopatra died only at the age of 39, but how she died, it also remains a mystery till date.
Although various things have been said about her death, now what is really true cannot be told with any claim.
2000 years have passed since Cleopatra died, but even today all the secrets related to her life have not been revealed. Even today experts are trying to know all these facts.
