@ Rayn haydyn Because we are playing courtesan, not a maiden or matron... Moreover, at this time (50 BCE) Cleopatra was Julius Caesar's love interest. She chosen Marc Antony only after Caesar's death.

@ StoryGirl83 I guess Syphax seemed to be quite popular ancient Numidian male name. First time I met this name in Quo Vadis, novel of Polish writer Henryk Sienkiewicz. Action takes place in Rome during Nero's reigns. Among the main crew there was a strong man named Ursus. There was an episodic scene when two men were disputing who is stronger, Ursus or a gladiator named Syphax of Ethiopia. However, that Syphax was just episodic and fictional character.
