At the end of August 30 BCE, Alexandria fell to Octavian. Mark Antony had died after hearing the false news that Cleopatra had killed herself. The queen was being held inside the palace complex and knew that she might be taken to Rome for a triumph. Days later soldiers broke into the room and found Cleopatra dead on her bed, with her attendants Iras and Charmion.
