When Was Cleopatras Palace Built

On the esplanade Goddio uncovered the remains of a relatively modest (90 metres by 30 metres) marble-floored 3rd century BC palace, believed to have been Cleopatra’s royal quarters.

When was Cleopatra's palace discovered?

In 1998 Goddio finally found the remains of the ancient city and Cleopatra’s spectacular palace. Within this palace complex the team then discovered incredible intact artefacts, coins, pottery, vases, basins, statues, columns, marble floors and all manner of other beauties that had not been seen for nearly 2000 years.

What was Cleopatra's palace called?

Antirhodos was a center of culture, opulence, and royalty–the island once served as the palace home of Queen Cleopatra! Unlike its other sunken city counterparts (like the Lost City of Atlantis), we know a bit more about Antirhodos because we’ve actually seen it below the surface.
