Cleopatra at 15m deep and 1.8Km offshore of Alexandria

“Cleopatra: The Search for The Last Queen of Egypt,” an exhibit at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia.

An unprecedented exhibition ongoing in Philly at the Franklin Institute of the artifacts excavated from 2 cities offshore of Alexandria, Egypt from the time of Cleopatra.

It’s highly fascinating for anyone appreciative of Egyptology, Archaeology, Ancient History, Diving, Ancient Art or simply even, Cleopatra’s story!

But first, I highly recommend you listen to the Podcast (<- click here if above listen bar is not working) from On Point above about the events that took place leading to this wonderful exhibition.

Then check out some of the visually stunning photos here:
