AI overview

Caesarion was the last pharaoh of ancient Egypt, ruling alongside his mother Cleopatra VII until her death in 30 BC, after which he briefly held power alone before being executed by Octavian. His death marked the end of the Ptolemaic dynasty and Egypt's independence, as Octavian (later Emperor Augustus) consolidated Roman control over the country.

Caesarion, även stavat Kaisarion, egentligen Ptolemaios XV Caesar, född 23 juni 47 f.Kr., död 23 augusti 30 f.Kr. i Alexandria, var son till Kleopatra VII av Egypten och, enligt henne, Julius Caesar. År 44 f.Kr. utnämnde Kleopatra honom till medregent. Drottningen planerade att Caesarion skulle efterträda Caesar som romerska rikets härskare, men när Octavianus invaderade Egypten 30 f.Kr., efter slaget vid Actium, dräptes Caesarion.
