Cleopatra

It reads:Cleopatra sailed up the river and first met Mark Anthony aboard her boat. Do we have a source to back this claim ? In the antiquity Tarsus was a coastal city and Cleopatra didn't need to sail up Berdan to meet Antony. I'll call the editor. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 07:52, 17 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

From the blue-linked link on my edit: «Cleopatra sailed up the Kydnos River to Tarsos in her thalamegos, inviting Antony and his officers for two nights of lavish banquets on board her ship.[1][2]». XavierItzm (talk) 04:08, 18 July 2018 (UTC)Reply
