520    "The first biography of one of the most fascinating yet 
       long-neglected rulers of the ancient world: Cleopatra 
       Selene, daughter of Antony and Cleopatra. Years ago, 
       archaeologists excavating near Pompeii unearthed a hoard 
       of Roman treasures, among them a bowl depicting a woman 
       with thick, curly hair and sporting an elephant-scalp 
       headdress. For decades, theories circulated about her 
       identity-until, at last, she was ascertained to be 
       Cleopatra Selene, the only surviving daughter of Roman 
       Triumvir Marc Antony and Egyptian Queen Cleopatra VII. 
       Using this discovery as her starting point and creating a 
       narrative from mere fragments in the archaeological record,
       historian Jane Draycott reconstructs the exceptional life 
       of this woman who, although born into royalty and raised 
       in her mother's court, was held captive by Augustus Caesar
       and his sister, Octavia, after her parents' demise. Yet as
       Draycott shows, Cleopatra Selene was destined to emerge as
       an influential ruler in her own right, as queen, alongside
       King Juba II, of Mauretania, an ancient African kingdom. A
       long-overdue historical corrective, Cleopatra's Daughter 
       reclaims a mighty regent-and her infamous family-for 
       posterity"--|cProvided by publisher.
