'Cleopatra's Final Secret' documentary reveals hundreds of coins and port found in Egypt. But does that mean Cleopatra was buried there?

Archaeologists excavate a site with a tall wall in Egypt.

Hundreds of coins depicting Cleopatra VII, an Egyptian pharaoh who was a lover of Julius Caesar and Mark Antony, have been discovered at Taposiris Magna, a temple site from ancient Egypt. On top of that, the same team recently found a submerged port on the Mediterranean coast of Egypt and say that it's possible that her tomb could be located underwater near the port.

Both finds are part of "Cleopatra's Final Secret," a new documentary that premieres on the National Geographic channel Sept. 25 at 10 p.m. EDT (9 p.m. CDT) and on Disney+ and Hulu the following day.
