Justus, Josephus, Agrippa II and his Coins
An appendix to my book on the Herods dealt with the complex subject of the date of Agrippa II’s death. A double critique of my view by Christopher Jones and Alla Kushnir-Stein has appeared in this journal. Jones claims to be making a contribution by means of ‘Greek philology and Roman imperial prosopography’, tools presumably ‘insufficiently exploited’, and declares that while the revised edition of Schürer is out of date, my discussion is ‘quest…

The Location of Tarichaea
The current consensus regarding the location of Tarichaea as lying north of Tiberias by the Sea of Galilee, and as being identical to one of two cities with the name MGDL known from Rabbinical sources, is based on the old opinion of Albright. However, this opinion had unfortunately side-stepped the primary evidence of Pliny the Elder and badly misinterpreted that of Josephus. A closer look at the Greek text of the Jewish historian reveals that Ta…
The Foundation of Bethsaida-Julias by Philip the Tetrarch
Josephus ( Ant. 18.27) explicitly names Julia 'the daughter' of Augustus, distinguished from Livia/Julia 'the wife', as the person to whom the town of Bethsaida was dedicated. This must have taken place by 2 BCE when Julia was banished, denounced for multiple adulteries. The numismatist A. Kindler suggested that Josephus may be wrong and that Livia/Julia the wife would lie behind this dedication dated to 30/31 CE. Following Kindler, the archaeolo…

Antonia Augusta
Antonia Augusta was the most powerful and influential Roman woman of her time. The daughter of Mark Antony, wife of Drusus, mother of Claudius, grandmother of Caligula and great-grandmother of Nero, she spent her entire life close to the seat of power and was a supremely important figure in Imperial Rome. In this illustrated biography, Nikos Kokkinos draws upon a variety of evidence, including inscriptions, coins, papyri and sculpture, to illumin…

Which Salome did Aristobulus Marry
Une assertion de Josephe et l'existence d'une monnaie avaient fait croire depuis longtemps au mariage entre Aristobule, le roi d'Armenie, et Salome, probablement la fille d'Herodias. Une analyse chronologique precise de ces deux personnages montre l'impossibilite de cette union : Aristobule serait ne en 33/32 avant J.-C. et Salome en 1 apres J.-C. L'epouse d'Aristobule serait une autre princesse du nom de Salome : il s'agirait d'Herodias Salome f…
