Hasmonean Jerusalem (64 bce)
View through CrossRef
Abstract
In the mid-second century bce, the Jews gained independence from Greek rule and established a kingdom ruled by the Hasmonean family. Jerusalem became the capital of this kingdom, and, by 64 bce the city had reached its pre-586 bce size and population. Under the Hasmoneans, the city was increasingly integrated into the Hellenistic world but also became visibly more “Jewish.” Although the Roman annexation of the Hasmonean kingdom one year later—in 63 bce—marked a sharp historical break by ending Jewish independence, from an archaeological perspective, Jerusalem’s development by the Hasmoneans laid the groundwork for its continued growth under Herod the Great and his successors.
