Cleopatra's Beauty -- unveiled?




Academics at the University of Newcastle say the queen of Egypt (right), long
celebrated for her great beauty, was actually a sharp-nosed, thin-lipped woman.
In short, a fair match for the hook-nosed, thick-necked Mark Antony (left)

I believe beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I don't think that the hollywood or the media should dictate to us what is beautiful & what is not. Each individual has his own parameters to judge beauty. What is beautiful to one may seem ugly to another.

Real beauty is not the outer beauty because it fades with time. Rather, it is your character & your personality which should be the criteria through which people judge you.

dg: true but again the mystery behind cleopetra as a political leader made it very curious for those people to try to understand how did she manage to concquer her enemies : )
