Cleopatra
The famous
Egyptian pharaoh was a natural blonde originally from Macedonia. Her father,
Alexander’s general Ptolemy was blonde. Historians record those seductive
skills she owed not to beauty but intelligence. She successfully ruled a large
country. With skilful tactics she managed to seduce Caesar and Marcus
Antonius. She had excellent knowledge in the mathematics, chemistry, literature
and philosophy. Her knowledge of poisons was famous far and wide. Marcus
Antonius was so afraid of that talent so that even in the most intimate
moments did not want to taste anything before tasters. On one occasion she
poisoned the wine in her cup and told his lover to toast to their love. She
took a first sip, so she forwarded it to her beloved. When Marcus Antonius wanted
to drink, Cleopatra insisted that it first rehearsal taster. A few minutes
later the poor man fell dead. Cleopatra had explained to
terrified Antonius that the two were already drunk the antidote and
the key thing in a relationship is trust, that he have to believe that she is
so clever she can poison him whenever she wants.
