The '''Ptolemies''' were a [[Macedonian]] dynasty, descended from one of [[Alexander the Great]]'s officers, that ruled [[Egypt]] from 323 to 30 B.C.
From their magnificent capital at [[Alexandria]], the Ptolemies oversaw a system largely put in place by the earlier [[Pharoahs]] to extract the wealth of the land. The last ruling Ptolemy was [[Cleopatra]] before the [[Romans]] took over Egypt and ruled it as a province.
