Is Cleopatra Buried in Paris?

August 08, 2008

Cleopatra VII, the great Cleopatra, the big nose of geopolitical power, is in Paris. It is a matter of justice, because what would be better for a woman like her? Specifically, she is buried in the gardens of the National Library of France, at its old headquarters of the Rue Vivienne, near the Louvre and the Palais Royal. That is what Juan Angel Torti, former Chilean journalist and possibly the most elegant retiree in Paris, has been sustaining for years. This former reporter for Agence France-Presse, whose headquarters is a stone’s throw from where the Egyptian queen supposedly lies, looks forward to the moment when archaeologists reach access to the end of the 120 meters long tunnel at the temple of Tabusiris Magna, 50 kilometers from Alexandria, where the sarcophagi of Cleopatra and Marco Antonio are allegedly located. That is expected to happen later this year, as announced by the Egyptian authorities. But Torti is certain they are in for a big disappointment: "The tomb of Cleopatra is empty."

A full read of this article, published in lavanguardia.es and translated in English by Ben Morales-Correa, reveals that the mummy of Cleopatra came to Paris as part of a batch of three mummies given to Napoleon in his failed expedition to Egypt.

"They were among the few things that the future Napoleon I was able to draw from Egypt after the French defeat by the English. Those three mummies were exhibited at the National Library upon his return, to a wide audience. The whole world would see Cleopatra and all newspapers spoke of the event," Torti said.

Of course, the revolutionary theory isn't very popular with Egyptian authorities. In November, as the summer heat abates, they will employ a team of 12 archeologists, 70 excavators and radars to search for the hidden tomb at the temple of Tabusiris Magna.

According to Zahi Hawass, the head of Egypt’s Supreme Council of Antiquities, the last queen of Egypt is buried right there, sharing her last resting place with Mark Antony, the Roman general who became her lover and had three children with her.

Here is what Dr. Sabry Abd El Aziz , Head of the Egyptology Sector at the Supreme Council of Antiquities, told me about the search:
