Omschrijving

Agrippa I: Loyal Roman or Planning a Rebellion? — A Forensic and Political Investigation of Agrippa I: Loyal Roman, Rebel King, or Something in Between

Series: Agrippa I: Thesis Defence Series Volume: Third Wall of Jerusalem — Archaeology & Political Context

Source: Adapted directly from the author's thesis defence.

The audiobook is also available—narrated and ready to transport you into Agrippa's world. Narrated in a podcast-style format—accessible, engaging, and rooted in scholarly insight.

Diplomacy. Betrayal. Legacy. Hear Agrippa's story as it was meant to be told—in the voice of the archaeologist who uncovered it.

This series presents in volumes the transcript of material from the author's thesis defense, originally presented at the conclusion of a Master's degree in Classical Archaeology at the University of Pisa. > > The thesis was awarded full marks and reflects an interdisciplinary exploration of historical, political, archaeological, and medical perspectives.

This defence examines the construction, purpose, and political implications of the Third Wall of Jerusalem, drawing on archaeological evidence, Josephus' accounts, and the broader historical context of Agrippa I's reign.

It also explores Agrippa I's political strategies, diplomatic positioning, and the debates surrounding his loyalty, ambition, and legacy.

The author's full 750‑page dissertation is published separately under the title Agrippa I: A Comprehensive Archaeological Study of the Last King of Roman Judaea and a True Crime Inquiry.

Using a critical approach to ancient literary sources, archaeological evidence, and modern historiography, the work explores:

The material and political landscape of Agrippa's reign His diplomatic positioning between Roman and Judean authorities The recorded symptoms and political consequences of his sudden death The forensic plausibility of poisoning as a cause Competing narratives of loyalty, betrayal, and legacy in the first century CE

Both accessible and intellectually grounded, the content is ideal for readers interested in Roman history, ancient politics, and the enduring questions of allegiance and power in antiquity.
