Mark Antony and Cleopatra Tomb Found!?!?!?

[Kratos]

Well saw this on the News last night
I hope what they've found really is the Tomb of Mark and Cleo it'd be one of the Biggest Archaeological Finds of the 21st Century

This could be one of the Big Ones

That is really *really* cool.
It would be amazing if the Queen is truly in there...

This would be a great find and simply awesome! I am sure once excavation starts that they will definately film it and if it is indeed the tomb of Cleo and M.A., then it will make a great TV special to watch.

And hopefully tons more fun to watch that Geraldo opening Al Capone's vault!

Leave the dead be...let them rest is what I say.

I agree with you they should be left in piece
But wouldn't it be great to know if it was Antony and Cleo?
I sure wish Archaeologists would hurry up and find the body of Alexander

I saw this on TV lat night! That would be awesome! But apparently, a lot of archeologists are still very cautious about it! There are some clues, but no clear inscriptions that would tie it to Cleopatra! And they haven't found the mummies yet, only those of servants!

Yea its still is a very so and so case
It could be Mark and Cleo, or maybe not but I'm hopping it is

Love Archaeology, I prolly would pursue a career in it if I didn't love computers and bodybuilding.

I would like to see them take the bones and do one of the CSI facial reconstructions so we can see what they may have really looked like.

Does this mean they'll be another Mummy movie? Hope it's better than the last one.

Bust of Mark Antony

Bust of Cleopatra

Though it must be said that there has been debate over the years whether Cleo was a beautiful Queen of Egypt or the Ugly Spawn of a Harpy, but that leads me to think why would Antony want to get with something that hideous? Who knows, did he have own agenda to Secure Power for himself in Egypt? But I don't think she would of been ugly, she was most likely beautiful Antony fell head over heels for her and thus set of a chain of events for the doomed lovers

Ms. Martinez seems to be the reason.

I love this subject. I've been researching things like this for years especially Egyptian, Mayan and Sumerian.

You have?
I'm super interested in Egyptian, Greek and Roman studies I think they are great to read about and super fun to research

The discovery of King Tut's tomb was so remarkable not because of who he was, but because it was unplundered in antiquity. Even if they find the tombs and prove they're Marc and Cleo, it's unlikely they'd be as spectacularly rich as Tut's tomb.
