The death of Cleopatra

Via my friend Pat:

Cleopatra's death was caused by an enormous pinchy bug, common in ancient Egypt. The theory suggests that she was only stunned by the asp bite, and was finished off by a pinchy bug as illustrated in this little known painting: The Death of Cleopatra by a Pinchy Bug, artist unknown.
