A Woman Archaeologist Almost Found Cleopatra’s Tomb

Bright Side

About this episode

Imagine being this close to discovering Cleopatra’s lost tomb! A woman archaeologist, Kathleen Martinez, has spent nearly two decades searching for it, and she might have finally cracked the code. She believes Cleopatra was buried in a temple called Taposiris Magna, near Alexandria, instead of the famous pyramids. Recent discoveries, like hidden tunnels and mysterious burial chambers, hint that she could be right. If she actually finds Cleopatra’s final resting place, it would be one of the biggest archaeological discoveries in history. Until then, the mystery of the legendary queen’s tomb remains unsolved—but maybe not for long! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
