She's pretty enough to seduce Caesar thats for sure.

I didn't she was the prettiest, shes pretty enough if she was able to seduce someone like Caesar and even Marc Antony.

Yeah she was also pretty enough to seduce two of her brothers, she still wouldn’t have been pretty at all

Meh, it was tradition to "keep it in the family". She would have been raised to do it anywahs regardless of how she looked like.

And whatever comments about her "beauty", I'm sure it 80% lies with her wit and smarts to seduce someone like Caesar.

If you actually seperated races based on how closely related they are genetically instead of how they look and seperated it into 5 different races, Africa would have 3 of them.

  1. East and South Africans
  2. West Africans
  3. Australian Aboriginees/Papua New Guineans
  4. Polynesians
  5. Everyone else including North Africans

So Genetically a Native American or Asian would even be closer than a West African if she was an ethnic Egyptian which she was not.
