His wife was Cleopatra Selene II, the daughter of the infamous union between Marc Antony and Cleopatra. Brought to Rome after the defeat of his father by Julius Caesar in 46 BC, Juba eventually became a close personal friend of Octavian. From this friendship, Juba attained his later position of importance in N. Africa. </p> <p style="text-align: left"><br /></p> </p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
