Edit: I didnβt have enough room in the question to mention Berenice IV and Arsinoe IV, who also ruled as queens during the Ptolemaic Period.
Yes, I get that they're in Africa but people are really acting that all of Africa was Black, like anyone living in Africa would suddenly be Black. Cleopatra was the final Pharoah of the Hellenistic/Greek Ptolomies. Hannibal was from Carthage, a colony, then nation of the Phoenecians, a semitic people living in modern Lebanon. St. Augustine lived in Modern Algeria, who had a Berber mother. None of the people groups, or the Culture they belonged to were Black or Subsaharan.
Were they Africans? Yes. Were they Black? Probably not. Why am I racist for knowing more? It just feels weird to claim a whole group of People as Black when their literal descendants are still in the same place.
So for my SS project about Cleopatra, I am required to have primary sources about my pharaoh's life. I cannot seem to find pics or info of primary sources about Cleopatra. Does anyone know where I could find some good images/info of writing/artifacts/etc. about Cleopatra? Any info would be extremely helpful.

If nobody follows your orders, release your poisonous cobras to punish them!"
- Cleopatra, the Queen of Egypt, tries to rule over the battleground of the gods!

>History:
Cleopatra was a Queen of Egypt and a member of the Greek-speaking, Ptolemaic dynasty, who ruled Egypt from 300BC to 30 BC.
Deposed from power by her brother, Cleopatra aligned herself with Julius Caesar to regain the throne.
After Caesar's murder, she became the lover to Mark Anthony.
But, after Mark Anthony had been defeated by the forces of Octavian in the Roman Civil War, Anthony and Cleopatra committed suicide by a cobra bite, rather than fall into the hands of Octavius.
Her death marked the end of the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt β and Egypt became absorbed into the Roman Empire.
Cleopatra conducted numerous experiments with poisons.
She tested many different poisons to see the effects, the lethality, and the correct dosage that would be needed to cause death, and the amount of suffering that accompanied the various toxins.
Cleopatra collected numerous venomous animals and plants, collected the poisons from them or forced men to be bitten from them, and studied the effects.
Often these scenes were conducted in front of husband Marc Antony and guests for amusement.

>Basic Attacks: "Attack!"
Cleopatra orders her minions to attack nearby enemies.
The minions respond by shifting their weight and damaging nearby enemies with a spear.
If Cleopatra is placed on the ground, one of the Minions throws a spear forward, damaging the first enemy hit.
