Welcome to my Palace in the Alpha sector of Alexandria, Pearl of the Mediterranean, capital of Greco-Roman
Egypt.
On first approach by the Great Green sea, you may have caught sight of our glimmering beacon, the Pharos Lighthouse, then disembarked, to walk Dinocrates' Heptastadion Causeway. Why, you must be exhausted! Come now, take your ease.
Later on, those of you who can read are welcome to visit
The Alexandria Library. World-renowned scholars are said to
frequent it, but there are plenty of scrolls to read here, as well.
I hope you enjoy these excellent stories written about Alexandria, "the Dream of Amon's Son", and a few of her famous inhabitants.

Who was this famous Cleopatra?

Her background
Her family problems

Cleopatra and Antony
Company of Death
And this one, by Heraklia Aelius, is quite intriguing. Ever wonder What the Romans said about Cleopatra VII?
