I have put together a Ptolemaic/Seleucid family tree plus how they are connected to Thrace, judea and a few others. Anyone interested please email me lyndseyellen@hotmail.com as the file is too big to post here and I don't have my own website to publish it on:-)[/url]

If it is a picture file than you can upload it to the net at:

I've requested information, but for the heck of it... try these?





I recommend photobucket, myself.

I finally figured out a way to publish it online however it turned out to be quite simple to do and now I feel like an idiot:-)
Anyway, here's the URL

Just click on the documents section and there it is.
For all the eagle eyed ones out there, I missed out Princess Berenice daughter of Ptolemy III:-)

I'm going to do a bit more research on the decendents of Ptolemy of Mauretania and his sister Drusilla but that will probably involve a lot of speculation.

I have had fun in the past just looking at the different entries

You mean people like Zenobia Queen of Palmyra who claimed to be a descendant of Cleopatra?
I don't remember if her family relation was supposed to go through Cleopatra Selene or not.

Have you eveer seen any speculation about possible descendants of Cleopatra's sons?

Yes exactly! I did see a site which show the possible decent right from Selene to Zenobia but obviously much is speculation. I think if there was any real evidence we'd know about it but it's nich to think that Cleopatra still has decendents out there!

As for the boys, as I understand it, they were not allowed to live! Caesarion was in all likelihood killed as we know. Helios and Philadelphus appear to have been taken to Rome and were paraded in Octavian's victory parade. There is some speculation that they were raised for a time with Anthony's widow but they disapear from history after that. Selene is the only one we know that definitely survived.
