Herod Antipas, Tetrarch of Galilee and Perea, 4 B.C. - 39 A.D.
Antipas' most noted construction was his capital on the western shore of the Sea of Galilee - Tiberias, so named to honor his patron Tiberius. Residents could bathe nearby at the warm springs of Emmaus, and by the time of the First Jewish-Roman War the city's buildings included a stadium, a royal palace and a sanctuary for prayer. It gave its name to the sea and later became a center of rabbinic learning. Pious Jews at first refused to live in it because it was built atop a graveyard and therefore a source of ritual impurity; Antipas had to colonize it using a mixture of foreigners, forced migrants, poor people, and freed slaves.JD87492.
