New post on Pyxis & Spatula: How beautiful was Cleopatra?

"So you started a new blog and then only wrote two posts in 3 weeks? Nice work."

"Well, things came up! My cat was sick and then the apocalypse started . . . "

"Excuses, excuses."

Anyway, here is the latest post on my new blog about beauty in the ancient world, in which I think about whether or not it's actually possible for us to judge how beautiful Cleopatra really was.

(I won't advertise every new Pyxis & Spatula post here--I'll just do it until I get into a better posting rhythm.)
