Apollodorus the Sicilian (c. 90s BCE – 47 BCE) was a loyal follower and friend to the last Ptolemaic Pharaoh of Egypt, Cleopatra VII. He was also an ally of and handler for Bayek of Siwa, during the latter's time serving Cleopatra.
Later Greek historians relate how Apollodorus supposedly wrapped Cleopatra in a carpet and sneaked her up in the Royal Palace in Alexandria during the summer of 48 BCE, so she could use her charm and beauty to win over the Roman general Julius Caesar to her cause against her brother Ptolemy XIII. [citation needed]
Around 48 BCE, Apollodorus allied himself with the Medjay Bayek to investigate the mysterious Order of the Ancients and to eradicate its members.
