BBC China:埃及艳后的“非洲母亲”
相传是绝世美人的古埃及女王克娄巴特拉(Cleopatra,公元前69 – 30年),在不少人心中就是伊丽莎白.泰勒(Elizabeth Taylor)1963年在《埃及艳后》电影里给她塑造的形象。
但参加BBC一个历史节目的考古学家说,有证据显示这位古代女王有一半非洲血统。
克娄巴特拉是托勒密(Ptolemy)王朝的末代君主,先与兄弟和丈夫共同主政,后来一人统治,并号称法老,曾是罗马皇帝凯撒(Julius Caesar)和大将安东尼(Anthony)的情人。
欧洲王族
迄今为止人们普遍认定克娄巴特拉祖上来自希腊北部的马其顿(Macedonia),因为她所属的王室是亚历山大大帝攻占埃及后建立的殖民王朝。
现在考古学家在土耳其西海岸一个古墓里发现了他们确信是克娄巴特拉胞妹阿尔西诺伊(Arsinoe)的骷髅,而对骷髅的鉴定显示她母亲是非洲人。
参加这项工作的奥地利科学院考古学家希尔克.蒂尔博士(Dr Hilke Thuer)说,发现托勒密王朝的古墓,而且还有王族名人的遗骨,对考古家是一生绝无仅有的事情,令她极为振奋。
新发现
“阿尔西诺伊曾有非洲母亲的这个发现震撼人心,并且必定会让人们对克娄巴特拉家族,以及对这两个姐妹之间的关系有新的认识。”
BBC的电视节目《克娄巴特拉:杀手的画像》(Cleopatra: Portrait of a Killer)将在3月23日播放。
而后维也纳医科大学的法比安.坎茨博士(Dr Fabian Kanz)将于3月31日在美国芝加哥发表相关的科学论文
