That quote "No men will found my coffin" isn't real. There’s zero historical evidence that Cleopatra ever said that. And no, her coffin hasn’t been found either. As of Sept 2026, we still have no idea where she’s buried. Here’s what we actually know: What the old texts say: The only clue we have is from Plutarch, writing about 100 years after she died. He said Cleopatra and Mark Antony were buried together in a “magnificent tomb” in Alexandria. After that, nothing. Alexandria got hit by massive earthquakes and tsunamis, and half the ancient city slid into the sea. Where archaeologists think it might be: 1. Taposiris Magna Temple, 45km west of Alexandria: This is where Dr. Kathleen Martinez has been digging for years. Why here? The temple was for Osiris and Isis, and Cleopatra called herself the “New Isis”. They’ve found coins with her face, statues, 20m deep tunnels, and 16 burial shafts in 2024. Martinez thinks the tomb is in a hidden chamber nearby, maybe even underwater. She says they’re “close” but hasn’t found the coffin yet. 2. Under the Mediterranean, off Alexandria The Franck Goddio team has been finding the sunken royal palace, statues, and sphinxes underwater. Problem is, searching for one specific tomb down there is basically like finding a needle in the ocean. 3. Royal Necropolis in modern Alexandria Most historians think this is the most likely spot because that’s where Ptolemaic kings were usually buried. Problem is, the entire modern city is built on top of it. You’d have to tear down buildings to dig. Why we haven’t found it yet 1. The Ptolemies didn’t carve “Cleopatra is buried here” on the walls like Egyptian pharaohs did. 2. 3 huge earthquakes between 1303-1323 AD wrecked coastal Alexandria. 3. If the Romans or anyone else found it first, they would’ve looted all the gold 2000 years ago. Reality based Facts: Most archaeologists say it’s 50/50 whether we find it in our lifetime. If it’s at Taposiris, maybe in the next 5-10 years. If it’s under the city or the sea, it might stay lost forever. And even if we do find the tomb, chances are the coffin and mummy were looted ages ago.
