During those centuries royality considered incest a necessity to keep the blood in thier family pure as to be able to rule as God's. This is not saying that this occured but it was practiced, so the historians say.

INCEST IS THE SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN A MAN AND A WOMAN REGARDLESS OF AGE AND BLOOD RELATION. THIS WAS PRACTICED BEFORE CHRIST. IT WAS BANNED AT THE TIME OF MOSES TO PREVENT PHYSICAL DEFORMITIES IN THE OFFSPRING. IN ITAREYA BRAHMANA, BRAHMA MARRIED HIS OWN DAUGHTER SARASWATHI AND LIVED IN INCEST. IN THE BIBLE, CAIN MARRIED HIS OWN SISTER AND LIVED IN SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP. EVEN TODAY INCEST IS PRACTICED, FOR INSTANCE THE MARRIAGES BETWEEN A MAN AND DAUGHTER OF HIS OWN SISTER. WE CAN SAY THAT INCEST IS NEITHER A SIN NOR A SAINT ONE. THE KNOWLEDGE OF MAN IS NOT FIT ENOUGH TO DECIDE WHAT IS GOOD AND WHAT IS BAD. IN FACT THE KNOWLEDGE OF MAN IS RIDICULE TO GOD. SO IF CLEOPATRA'S FATHER AND MOTHER ARE BROTHERS AND SISTERS TO EACH OTHER, THERE IS NO WRONG OR NO RIGHT IN IT.
