# Later lives print Octavian’s annexation as the end of a court and the scattering of a household

Date: 1921

## The fact

Britannica and [Plutarch](/people/plutarch)-in-English print the fall of the court in 30 BCE as received, with dependents killed or moved. The dated carrier is that later narrative. Displacement of a royal household is a modest-scale forced-movement path, not a census of the Delta.

## Context

Octavian’s annexation is the act. She is the fallen principal as later told.

[Cleopatra](/people/cleopatra) is not the sole author of every later object, law, or museum label that uses the name. Shared work with courts, excavators, printers, spouses, officials, and later states does not erase a documented role, and it does not make an ancient person the signer of a twentieth-century statute.

## Evidence and sources

Official museum, UNESCO, or edition pages and an independent publisher independently describe this instrument.

Official or archival record: Britannica — Cleopatra (https://www.britannica.com/biography/Cleopatra-queen-of-Egypt; Encyclopaedia Britannica).

## Significance

Printed court-fall is displacement, not a 1963 extras call-sheet.

## What is established and what is not

Established as a dated public record of this instrument.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.
