2. The excavations have brought to light some 40 mausoleums and over 200 single tombs arranged on multiple levels, most well preserved and dating between the end of the 1st century BC to the start of the 4th century AD.
3. Cassius Dio, a noted Roman historian, once wrote: "For she was a woman of surpassing beauty, and at that time, when she was in the prime of her youth, she was most striking; she also possessed a most charming voice and a knowledge of how to make herself agreeable to every one." But other authors, including Greek historian, biographer and essayist, Plutarch, suggest otherwise and insist that whilst she was not as striking as legend would have us believe – she possesses an "irresistible charm" and a "sweetness in the tones of her voice; and her tongue, like an instrument of many strings." The legendary femme fatale, who ruled in the 1st century BC, has been played by Vivien Leigh, Sophia Loren and Elizabeth Taylor – all of whom portrayed her as a dark beauty who drove men to obsession before she committed suicide at the age of 38.
