This book presents part of a CIfA archaeology conference talk and a section of the thesis defense of a 750‑page Classical (Roman) Archaeology master's thesis awarded full marks at the University of Pisa.
Agrippa I, grandson of Herod the Great and Mariamne the Hasmonean princess, lived at the intersection of Roman power and Judaean identity. This study examines his rise, political career, and sudden death, drawing on archaeological evidence, coinage, and literary sources to reconstruct the strategies, pressures, and cultural tensions that shaped his world.
First delivered at the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists (CIfA UK) conference in 2021 and later expanded within a University of Pisa master's thesis, the work combines historical narrative with material‑culture analysis.
Part I explores Agrippa's life and movements within the Julio‑Claudian court.
Part II investigates the cultural schism emerging in Herodian Judaea, revealed through elite domestic architecture, imported vessels, and the "pure style" of Judaean workshops.
Together, these sections form a rigorous and engaging account of the last king of Roman Judaea, framed as a true‑crime inquiry into the political circumstances surrounding his mysterious death.
This edition republishes the material for a wider audience of students, scholars, and readers of ancient history.
