Late Hasmoneans and Herodians (1 ene 47 año aC – 1 ene 44 año)

Descripción:

After a period of direct rule by the Roman Republic, the Romans installed a former Hasmonean king as ruler of a semi-independent Judea in the Land of Israel. In 40 BCE, the Roman Senate declared a junior descendant of the Hasmoneans, Herod, king of Judea, beginning a new dynasty.

King Herod built additions to the Temple in Jerusalem but was also seen as a tyrant by the rabbis. King Herod's descendants ruled most of Judea for some years after his death, but the Roman Empire eventually removed their authority and turned Judea into a Roman province.
