The noun PTOLEMY has 2 senses: 1. Alexandrian astronomer who proposed a geocentric system of astronomy that was undisputed until Copernicus (2nd century AD) 2. an ancient dynasty of Macedonian kings who ruled Egypt from 323 BC to 30 BC; founded by Ptolemy I and ended with Cleopatra. Familiarity information: PTOLEMY used as a noun is rare.
More than 2,000 years after her death, Cleopatra, the last Ptolemaic queen of Egypt, remains one of the most famous and fabled women in history. Almost forgotten, however, is Ptolemy XV Caesar, AKA Caesarion, her son fathered by Julius Caesar, who was groomed for greatness that was never to be. Caesarion, whose name means âlittle Caesar,â was the last Pharaoh of the Ptolemaic dynasty, and an heir and potential successor to his father in Rome as well.
